The property was fine, however they do not tell you they charge 38.50 a night to park your car. This would have been very helpful. Rooms are very small, I would not recommend this place for larger people. We barely fit in the shower.

My stay was great. The staff was very helpful and friendly which made check-in/out very efficient! The hotel was so close to the pier (it was only a few minutes to walk) which made the evening enjoyable. The room was very clean and looked really nice. I would stay again!

Great location. Easy to park. Loud area and loud guests. Asked to be moved to a quieter area and they accommodated us. Nice service. Great valet service for our car. Had to go down 3 floors to get ice. Had to request a refrigerator if you are not in a suite. People across the hall were partying loud at 10:30 at night. Called front desk and they took care of it right away.

Not bad if you don’t mind lack of amenities. Bed covers are too thin to keep warm. Noisy outside. But a block away form the beach and shopping. Depends how you look at it…

The staff was very nice, hotel was pretty clean. My only complaint is that it was very loud there. I woke up at 5am from people above me stomping around for a half hour. It was loud outside. A lot of construction and banging going on. Did not sleep very well here.

This was our fourth or fifth stay at Carmel Hotel. Great location, close to LAX, friendly staff. While building is older, rooms have been recently renovated and updated. Would definitely stay again.
