The room was a great size. AC worked great and was a plus. Beds and pillows were firm if you like that. Watch out for the hidden fees. $30/night for parking and $10/night "service fee"

This hotel undersells itself. The property is really modern and clean. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The location is ideal if you’re looking to explore the surrounding areas by car. Pool area is great. Overall my family and I really enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave.

Central Location

Decent if not a dark room. The room was pet friendly and close to the walking and pet relief areas. The location is central and easy to get to Carmel by the Sea and Monterey. Value for the money is just average for the area.

Just OK. Updated motel, not luxurious or quiet

We felt the beds were very hard, with no padding, & thin sheets. Our patio smelled like dog poop, though we didn't find any. The faux grass needed to be cleaned. Our patio was open to a cement pathway to the front desk, so rolling luggage noise was often. Also some guests near us were very noisy, even awoke us at 6 am. Pool movie right outside our patio was also loud. Front desk very polite, chocolates purchased were excellent.

Perfect location if visiting Carmel and Carmel Valley. Rooms are big and quiet. Great food choices in both the front and back of hotel. Cross Roads and Barnyard. Nice to have an Irish bar with music next to back parking lot. From Stratch awesome breakfast a two minute walk.

Carmel Mission Inn was a decent hotel for our small little get away. We arrived early in hopes to get an early check-in but they were not able to accommodate us and in fact the room was not ready on time, we had to wait for another 30 minutes. The shower had no water pressure, but the manager had it fixed right away. So other than that I would just say that they should not charge $30 a day for parking (and this is not told to you up front, so even if you don’t have a car they will charge unless you tell them not to) over all the hotel accommodations were nice and clean.

Carmel mission inn was super clean and really nice to stay in. The decor was nice and the rooms were spacious. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very nicely decorated. Avoid the accessible room though because the shower flooded the bathroom. Make sure you ask NOT to be in an accessible room. I would recommend it and would come back again!
