Carmel Inn

It was as always good for the money, second time staying and will probably again.

Ample coffee in rooms , extra towels giving no problem, from staff

Clean older motel Room had a musty smell and door could use adjustment. Could see light around it

I was immediately impressed with the warm welcome from the front desk staff lady. The pros: Convenient location Excellent price Dog friendly and the pet fee is $15 per stay Huge flat screen TV Updated bathroom with a grab bar Beautiful smelling Apple shampoo in a full pump container on the shower wall Hot shower and good water pressure. It's own little enclosed dog park! Tons of free flat parking and if you have a large vehicle or motorhome or even a full semi truck, they have parking for you. The cons: If you have a long haired dog, bring scissors to cut out the burrs they will get walking the outskirts of the property. The bed felt lopsided. The pillows were absolutely horrible. There were six pillows in total for two beds, which was nice. However, the pillows were either too huge, too heavy, too flat. They all need replacing in my opinion. It was a difficult sleep. Old brown towels. I don't know why that gives me the ick, but it just does. You can't see if they are clean or not. I'm not sure if that's just a pet friendly room thing or if all rooms have brown towels but that's just gross. The rooms have real keys. Although nostalgic, that doesn't make me feel safe for my person or for my property in the room, as I don't know if the previous guests copied the key or kept a key. I was still recommend this place with just a few tweaks it would be even better. I'll still give it five stars because I'm just picky!
