I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding a recent hotel stay I booked through Expedia in Carmel-by-the-Sea. Unfortunately, my experience was far below expectations due to both unprofessional staff behavior and unacceptable room conditions. Upon checking in, I encountered a male staff member who was extremely disrespectful and inappropriate. He commented on my appearance, saying things like, “Why don’t you smile? You have to smile at me. When you don’t smile and your face is serious, I get nervous.” I found this to be unprofessional and intrusive, especially coming from hotel staff who are expected to provide a welcoming and respectful environment.

We enjoyed the partial ocean view. It was true to what was described. We asked for a quiet spot and got it. The king sized bed was comfy and the small living area away from the bedroom made things feel more spacious. There is a small step up into the bedroom that caused my husband to stumble. The blackout curtain did not block out the morning sun, so if you're an early riser, it's ok. If not, bring your eye mask. The small fridge and microwave were nice to have. The towels were flat, not fluffy. Breakfast was good. In all, this was a nice Best Western.
