Carmel Bay View Inn

This was not our first stay in Carmel. All hotels seem to be older and very small. This one was cleaner and more updated than others, location was amazing, staff was friendly, parking was great. Lots to love, nothing to complain about.

Cute little place, great location.

No AC or fan in the rooms (there is heating). It generally doesn't get too hot in Carmel, but for those of us who are naturally warm and need a little AC (or at least a fan)going to sleep well at night, it was disappointing. Everything else was good.

Stayed in room 502, which had a great view of the ocean. Everything was very clean and comfortable. The bathroom was small but it appears to have been recently remodeled and the shower had good water pressure. Its a short walk to lots of nice restaurants.

The AC/refrigeration unit from the market/deli next door is somewhat loud and is on 24 hours. It's a white noise so I was able to kind of tune it out, but be aware if you're someone who's sensitive to that type of thing.

The view by far was the best feature to this hotel. Location was perfect. The staff was exceptional!

Attractive setting, great location! Clean and comfortable.
