Staff was very friendly, front desk and housekeeper were very helpful. Awesome location- walking distance to everything… 0.8 mile walk /15 min to the beach… Reasonable price. Just would like a continental breakfast or happy hour like years ago… overall, excellent place to stay quaint and comfortable!

We stayed 4 nights and they were redoing the roof. They never told us in advance. It was so loud from 830am to 4pm everyday we were there. Very frustrating that they didn’t have the decency to inform us so we could have made different arrangements. We did finally speak to the owner before check out and he I offered a free night if we come back, but only through a verbal agreement. We were not given a physical credit. We will not be staying here again.

I would never stay here again. It took 20 minutes for the hot water to heat up. The bathrooms were not ADA compliant. The mattress was the worst I have ever slept on. It was so hard and uncomfortable. Sadly there is nothing I would recommend about it. The fixtures were old and in poor condition. It’s a shame that they don’t fix it up.

We picked this place for its affordability when we had planned a spontaneous trip down to Carmel. We didn’t expect it to be as great as it was! Very clean, the front desk people were helpful, it was really quiet and we were able to walk to everything we wanted to in the area. Parking was also easy. There are a lot of stairs though, so I would consider that if you have special mobility needs.

For the location, it’s extremely affordable and it’s undergoing renovations right now that are not disrupting. The owners are kind.

I find Carmel best when you can stay within walking distance of downtown. Wayfarer Inn is clean, convenient and usually has among the best prices in town. The rooms are large though furnishing and amenities are spartan. It's a great choice if all you care about is a bed, shower and table for your computer.

Great little spot in town with a parking lot (a major plus!) and street parking with no time limit. The receptionist was warm and friendly and extremely helpful. The two bedroom family suite has a king bed in the main living area with 2 twin beds in a private bedroom. There is also a small fridge which is convenient for any leftovers or bottled water or other drinks you have during your stay. There are a lot of stairs which was fine for us but probably tough for those with mobility issues. Great stay overall and walkable to everything in town with restaurants as close as 1 block away.
