Great place to spend a few days. Very helpful staff, nice rooms and good service. The hot water was nice and HOT which was very amazing. I once stayed at a motel in Bangor, Maine which was almost 3 times the amount that Carls Motel charges and it SUCKED $%=* because the 'hot' water was more like luke warm and it's FREEZING up in New England! I highly suggest Carls. Very nice place overall.

$48 a night tax included was a very reasonable price. Huge bed, extremely cool air conditioning, 42" flat screen television with DirectTV including LA Dodgers games on ch. 5... Pizza Hut Delivery available and it was Clean with a HOT shower. I was very satisfied with my stay. My car broke down 2 miles away and got it towed to the mechanic, a good rest that was very much needed. Thank You very much.
