Great value, great location, and spacious comfortable room!

The room was perfect for what we needed. It was comfortable, affordable, and spacious! The grounds were beautiful and the location was great! We were able to walk to a fabulous restaurant for dinner.

Good value compared to the overpriced inn/hotels in Carmel.

Fireplace sends out a lot of heat. Location is close to Ocean Blvd. Quiet location

Pathways are a bit rough for elderly walking. Stairways only for upper floors

The room was so dirty, smelly, uncared for, and plain ugly that wee didn't even stay there it.

In a word, nothing so much so that I refused to stay there, and gave the manager the keys before even asking my wife in.

I checked in at 3, and saw the room, and immediately said this is unacceptable The room smelled, the bedding looked like someone could have just slept in it, the rug was very dirty - many spots, windows and bath below standards. Every hotel I have stayed in since Covid has clean standards that this hotel did not meet. It was a cramped, under the stairs room, not a city view, or a 'suite'. I asked the clerk (who was not at all friendly) could I upgrade. he said no, so I gave him the key back and said I would not bring my wife there. Frankly, I couldn't wait to leave. Since Carmel appeared full, we left and spent the night in Pismo at the Spyglass InnDirty, smelly, cramped, uncared for - In general not acceptable.

Room and bathroom was nice and clean. However, we didn't get any service cleaning the room or changing towels. Heating couldn't be controlled, very hot at night and cold in the morning. Bed sheets were terrible. Really very very old fashioned and uncomfortable. Only sheets not comforter. Coffee starting at 8 in the lobby..... awful coffee, absolutely not drinkable

Coffee Bed sheets not getting service to clean the room and change towels

My mother and I did enjoy our stay in Carmel for our Mother’s Day trip.

I did like the location and the curb appeal and the outdoor charm, and the fireplace in the room.

I didn’t like that there wasn’t a microwave oven or coffee maker in the room and no carpeting or area rug on the floor.

It was very nice & cozy. We loved it.

The location was great. Loved the room & fireplace. It was super cozy & we enjoyed just chillin in the room. It was just really nice & we definitely wanna go back.

The bed & pillows were not comfortable. The bed was hard & pillows were flat. Also the fireplace was really nice & worked great except the glass window needs to be cleaned to enjoy the view of the fire. It's like completely fogged over. My husband said he wished he could pull out the window & just wipe it down. Lol.

Our "Go-to" hotel in Carmel. We will be back.

Perfect Location. Brilliant welcome from the staff. We will be back.

It could be a touch cleaner...but not a deal breaker.

The location was great.

location and it felt clean-

The linens needed to be updated. The sheets looked clean- the extra blanket was stained and the quilt looked well used.

Affordable for the location.

It was like our own little apartment with a fireplace and even came with an extra room and 2 twin beds which we didn't use. It was very close to the restaurant went to, so we were able to walk there and back.

We couldn't get the fireplace to work. The guy at the front desk was a little creepy.

Nice old place, we will be back again.

The location was perfect, staff was pleasant, room was clean, fireplace was a plus and the room was overall comfy.

Room smelt like clorox and we had to leave a window open. The room is very outdated and the top of our door could not be shut from the inside. It was an old door that had 2 parts with a top and bottom. Fridge was not cleaned and the nob was missing to turn it on.

I liked the family, suite accommodation. The size of the room and number of beds worked well for our group.

This is the third time I’ve stayed at the Wayfarer Inn. Each time it has had a lot of trash around the property-large cardboard boxes and other items. additionally, the staff knew the number of people staying in the room, but provided less towels than needed. When we realize this, no staff was available to fix this.

Cold and disappointing.

The location.

The room was ugly and badly needed remodeling. The bathroom was old and grungy. There was no tissue and the soap was tiny and didn’t lather. It took forever for the water to get warm. There was no heat other than a small standing heater that didn’t radiate heat beyond one foot.
