Carmel Bay View Inn

Carmel Bay View Inn

10/10 Excellent
"The property and room are gorgeous with a great view of the ocean and a wonderful deck! There is a fireplace in every room and very spacious. The bed and pillows are extremely comfortable and if you open the windows you can hear the roar of the ocean. No noisy traffic or bright lights at night. Everything is spotless and the front desk person is so helpful and kind. It is especially amazing for the price and quality also it is a perfect location downtown with a little store next door. One of our favorite hotels, the pictures do not do it justice. We will always choose this hotel when staying in Carmel. "
