This hotel is really conveniently located to downtown Carp and the ocean, about a 10 minute walk either direction. And it was super affordable, especially travelling with a dog. But it was really noisy with doors shutting and whatnot all night, and the bed was really uncomfortable. We slept very little over 2 nights and won't be staying again, even at the great price.

Best beach town in Southern California
We’ve stayed in this hotel on and off for 15 years. We’re always up here looking to buy a home for retirement goals.
My dog loves Carpentaria too.
A very dog friendly hotel with lots of space to walk your dog.

An unclean room was provided at 11pm and we were denied another room as the hotel was fully booked. It wasn't checked out from the previous guests.

The bedding is looking very old with metal bed frame. Also the comforters are so thin that they are not keeping you cozy in cold weather.
