A little loud in the mornings (room 66) but understandable as the restaurants and cafes had deliveries early so they could support the tourists meals in the day/night

Nice property and friendly staff in a great central location, but the accommodations are small, no air conditioning, no elevator, and the designated parking lot was always full, so getting luggage up and down the flights of stairs and to and from the car was a challenge. Not sure I’d return.

Quaint hotel in the main area of Carmel. Short walk to the beach (coming back is all uphill!). The hotel was older than it looked in the pictures. We had a suite for a family of 4 which was nice, but we had to haul giant suitcases upstairs due to no elevator.

The building is charming in age . I enjoyed it since I love this type of architecture. Some may not like the age since it comes with a bit of noise traffic because of the way it’s built. Feels like being in an old Victorian era home. I’m not sure if this is the age of the building but I happen to love it! The staff and decor is very pretty! Located in the heart of shopping and walking distance to the beach. Parking is limited. It’s clean and many photo ops.

Not Carmel Charm
Parking was not available when we arrived, yet the hotel lists parking included. Hotel is very tired, needs a full refresh. You are not allowed to enjoy a coffee in the lobby, yet there is no where for you to enjoy a coffee as you wait for your group to depart the hotel. Every morning, staff members gathered in the parking lot to smoke and talk, their voice carry to the rooms in the back of the hotel.

1st of all when we arrived, there wasn't any place to park and were told parking is 1st come 1st serve and that we could move our car every two hours. Our room was on the 4th floor and smelled musty I am allergic to mold and got sick. Additionally, we never had a hot shower, the shower was luke warm. Note, the hotel does not have an elevator. We will not stay at this property again.

Wonderful King Room with Ocean View
We've stayed at the Pine Inn before but this is the first time we booked a King Room with a view. Of course I broke my foot before the trip! This historic hotel doesn't have an elevator, the ADA rooms are downstairs with patio access. The staff was so kind letting me know I could attempt the stairs (fortunately the stair case was narrow enough that I could hold onto the bannisters and with one leg hop up) and if that didn't work the downstairs room would be waiting for me. Even on day 2 the staff checked in with me and let me know the other room was still available. But the view upstairs was worth the extra effort and listening to the waves as I fell asleep was such a treat. The coffee from Il Fornaio is one of our favorite coffee stops even when we don't stay at the Pine Inn, we enjoyed waking up to an excellent latte.
