Fantastic Location
The motel's greatest asset is its location, right in the center of Carmel and very convenient to local restaurants and shops. Guests enjoy walking through the pretty village and down to the lovely sandy beach. Some guests say they leave their car parked during their stay and walk everywhere they need to go. There's even a grocery store next door.
positive:
Good Value
Lodging in Carmel can be expensive and guests say this motel is a good overall value for the area. Rooms aren't luxurious or large but they are reasonably priced, clean and comfortable.
positive:
Better than Average Breakfast
Breakfast is free here and many guests say it's better than they expected. There is a good selection of items with plenty of options. Most guests say it's good, and a bit different from the usual continental breakfast featuring items like oatmeal and almond milk.

No Air-Conditioning
Rooms here can get hot in the summer and guests complain there's no air-conditioning or ceiling fans. Guests can request a fan from the front desk but on hot days the second floor can get especially warm. Some guests resort to keeping their door open at night to cool things down.
negative:
Needs an Overhaul
Rooms here are basic and functional but guests say the décor is very tired and worn. From old furniture to chipping paint, non-working fixtures and thin, worn towels, the property could use a remodel and some updating.
negative:
Appliances in the Bathroom?
Don't be surprised to find the coffee makers and refrigerators located in the bathroom at this motel. Guests say the set-up is awkward at best.
