Sandcastle Inn

Quite nice!

Liked: Comparatively to other hotels the value was awesome! We stayed 2 nights and it was clean quiet at night and very comfortable. Of course it has some years on it, but overall it was very nice! Pool was clean, cable TV had lots of options like on demand, live or Netflix. Sheets and comfortor were nice and 3 pillows on each bed, just like the picture online. No unexpected surprises. The lady checking us in was very nice and she smiled, which you don't see a lot of anymore.
Disliked: Maybe a little touchup paint on the railings and stairwell cause that's the first thing you see and it was a little scary at first, but once we got settled in, it was quite nice. I also understand it's hard to keep high traffic areas, especially with luggage, looking perfect. So it's understandable.

Good

Liked: Everything else was great! We were right by the pool
Disliked: The beds were so hard my husband didn't get any sleep

Passable

Liked: That they had the air conditioner on when we first got there! Walking distance to the beach!

Passable

Liked: Proximity to the beach was great.
Disliked: Nothing else was great about my stay. Property is old, dated and unkept.

Passable

Very good

Bad

Great value motel

Liked: Value for distance to beach. It's a decent priced motel 1 block from the beach. It's reasonable and the people who work there are nice.
Disliked: Look, this place is a great budget motel, a block from the beach, with no crosswalks. It's not going to be pristine. Keep your shoes on, you're probably going to smell sewer gasses occasionally, some stuff is going to be superficially broken (our most recent stay, the shower rod was cracked on the wall and we needed to be gentle with it. The shower started holding water a few days in. The stay before that, we had to switch rooms because the toilet was leaking and the new room's fridge didn't work) But, the people that work there are nice, the beds are clean and its an easy walk to the beach on the side of the pier that we like.

Good

Liked: We liked the parking. It was easy to get to and we were able to find a parking spot every day. Front desk staff was very polite too.
Disliked: The beds were very hard and uncomfortable. The pool had little seating and no shade. Maybe put some umbrellas out for guests.
