Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Room is clean, comfortable, and quiet, though could use some maintenance. Staff is friendly and helpful. Coffee in room is pathetic.
Positives- close to beach, very good location. Friendly staff, very attentive and great service.
Negatives- key card didnt work. Had to drag out big machine from the 90s to fix it. Paint peeling off bathroom door. Plumbing issues- had to get plunger to unclog the toilet and shower. Low water pressure. Old style hard spring beds like college dorms or worse. Bring your own pillows. Microwave blew up- went POP and didnt cook. They had to bring a new one and it did cold spots and burnt others. Fridge had to be turned on. Old shower curtain. Air can only be 72 degrees- old wall unit. Dim lighting in bathroom/vanity area.
This would be great for teens or young 20s on a budget but for olders or injuries this is a no. Will not be back. Staff and location are the only 2 saving graces.
Everything was fine. the only problem was at check in our room was not ready but they up graded to another room

Average but doable
Last minute trip and you get what you pay for. Not bad, but, surrounded by potheads. Bed was comfortable. Room was clean. Just an old motel and you can tell.
The pictures on the website did not reflect the property at all. The bathrooms were dirty, it smelled bad in the room and was not a good place to sleep.

Functional and good value
Very affordable hotel. Amenities were in line with what you would expect for the price
This was our second time staying at the Sandcastle Inn. We have enjoyed our stays. The only down side is if you have two vehicles when they are full, you have to park one somewhere else. For us it wasn’t a problem because of all the parking on the streets and it’s walking distance to the beach (which has parking)
The photos presented on websites are deceiving..yes the rooms are simple with a TV and free wi-fi - they are in dire need of total renovation..sink was old and without a stopper; towels pretty weathered and forget about any housekeeping. Check in happens across the street at a sister property which was not convenient when the room key no longer worked.
If a very basic room is needed - this would be the place.

The room was a smoking room, but could have used some detailed cleaning. The lady in office said she would come clean, but we didn't want any one in room. Cleaned it up myself. Lady in office was great

It is an older hotel but they keep it clean. Walking distance to the pier, all of the shops and dining. A great little breakfast spot right in front of the hotel And amazing little ice cream shop also right in front of the hotel!
