The Pine Inn is a historic hotel. For the price we paid and location of the hotel-in the heart of Carmel, it was fine but I would not recommend. Rooms did not have fridges or coffee makers and very few electrical outlets. Biggest complaint was that sheets and towels smelled like wet dog. Cleanliness of carpet at furniture also questionable. No a/c which is uncommon in Carmel but our room was stuffy. Hotel did provide fan which helped. Also, parking is nightmare especially on weekends. We arrived Saturday afternoon and had to find street parking for two hours and then keep checking back until a spot was available on hotel lot.

If you like old properties with good historical context, or have been to Europe and stayed in some of their older properties, then this place is for you. Great location, limited parking, and some really interesting period pieces for furnishings. Price of anything in Carmel is pretty high, so take $$$$ in stride. Don't miss their restaurant!

Location is good. Can reach to some good restaurants quickly. The room facility is clean. The pity part is, the room we had stayed had pretty bad voice isolation, we can hear next door's conversation very clearly.

Not clean as expected, not housekeepers fault but stain carpet, chipped toilet seat and furniture, mold around the bath tub etc. Though the website says enough parking but there was no parking?? When asked the front desk we are told to find the street parking( that we have to move every 2 hours )

The shopping and dining options were excellent. All within easy walking conditions. There was available parking across the street. What we didn't like was being woken up at 2am by a beetle landing on my ear and then getting into my shirt. There was also no air conditioning in this room.

The plumbing made a lot of noise, even from other rooms, it kept me up at night. The service was terrible as well. When I complained to the desk clerk about it, they just told me to take it up with Expedia. My room was on the 3rd floor, no elevator. There was no coffee available in the morning with out asking for it, which was given begrudgingly. Overall, not a pleasant experience.
