The interior is definitely dated and could use some updating but we weren’t traveling to Carmel to sit in a hotel room.. really can’t beat the price for the location and comfort.

Perfect location, friendly staff and comfortable bed! Really great value overall and would stay again.

Everything was fine.

Extremely convenient location in the middle of town. Easy walk to everything. Room was clean and tidy. We did not have breakfast there. We ate breakfast down the street.

Rooms are very small and the walls are very thin. You can hear most of whats going on in adjoining rooms.

Great location with parking available.

The room and bathroom need to be refurbished - they are very dated.

Great location and staff

Cons - a little dated. Older furniture, old refrigerator that worked more like a freezer and a very slow drain in the shower.

Pros - close to everything that’s Carmel by the Sea. Good restaurant choices within a block walk. If you are a walker like we are, we never used our vehicle during our three day stay.

Neighbors making too much noise. Being an old building all the noise is amplified, very thin walls.

Conveniently located to shops and restaurants, walking distance.

Water pressure and temperature not good

We wanted an expensive one night in Carmel and the Lodge fit the bill. They are closing next week for a remodel which it needs but location is great, bed very comfortable, towels nice, room large we had supper king. For the price very good but not fancy

The only thing is that we wanted to use the pool and it was out of service. The other thing is that some things in the room are pretty outdated, but completly functional.

We stayed only one night, but the staff is so helpful and a quick check in that let us time to enjoy Carmel. The rooms are very clean. Amazing location, don’t expect the best views, but it’s 3 streets from center and lots of places to go. The free parking it’s also amazing you can leave the car there and walk for 10min to the beach and 5 to Ocean ave!

Room decor was shabby. Definitely time to replace worn furniture, carpet. But even with that we would give the room and location a thumbs up.

When we checked in we asked about breakfast and was told that granola bars and fruit would be available in office we skipped inn offered breakfast. We loved the size and location of our room. Dutch doors were a nice touch. The bed and linens were comfortable and very crisp and clean. The towels were as well

Convenient location. It stay was during the week and it was very quiet. And it was reasonably priced when compared to other hotels in the same area. No problem with parking. Overall my husband and I enjoyed our stay.

The place is dated, but they are closing in August for renovation, and we are looking forward to that!

Location is exceptional. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Very expensive, and you don't get much beyond what I described above. The included breakfast was essentially just coffee and granola bars, which was fine but not what I was hoping for given how much we paid. Nothing to do with Carmel Lodge, but we had not realized that Carmel is actually a very foggy and chilly place! We were hoping for beach days but we did not get one in July.

Had a great stay here with my wife for two nights. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the location was fantastic. We were able to use this as a good home base from which to explore Carmel by foot. We even went to Carmel Valley, which was easy to get to via bus from a bus stop right around the corner from the hotel.

The room is exceptional, very clean, comfortable and cozy. We would've stayed more if we could. Although there's no breakfast, just an orange at reception. Great location, very quiet but close to the main street.
