Comfortable and good location
The Best Western Carmel Bay Inn was attractive and in a small city the location was very good. The staff was accommodating. The only negative was the limited amount of parking. We went in early May, but I would think that it would only get worse in summer.

Great views, average room
Hotel rooms need to be updated, but good value overall. Decent size room, furnishing and bedding on the older side. Easy to hear guests in other rooms but no sound from traffic.

Great location
My room was clean, comfortable and quiet. The fireplace was an unexpected plus. The location is in walking distance of all of the town and the sea. The breakfast was unimpressive and I skipped it the second day.

A Romantic Getaway
It's our first trip to the California and some friends recommended that we should stop by Carmel because it's a 'neat' town. We arrived and checked into the hotel around 4pm and the room was ready for us. It was very nice and cosy and we really enjoyed the fire place (something special which we don't really have it back home). The location of the hotel is very strategic and it's very near to all the shops and it's also very near the beach. We made it to see the sunset and it was beautiful. All in all, it was an enjoyable stay for us and the price is also very reasonable. One thing which I thing can further improve is on the checkout time, 11am is slightly early. It will be good if it can be extended to 12pm.

Noisy, both from the street and people walking by the room. Bed was comfortable, but the temperature in the room could have been cooler. The breakfast was a joke; all packaged food.
