Staff were fantastic. Easy check-in. Solid two star motel. Right beachfront. Room very clean. A little remodeled. Shower was clean and no mold in crevices. However bathroom needed some repair on baseboards and wall under window and lock did not work on bathroom window. I noticed a couple extremely small baby roaches in shower stall. Really a shame because the room with fridge and stove was in very good shape otherwise. Bed was very comfortable. Super nice pool. Great value for a simple motel in excellent location.

The room looked like it had not been stayes in or cleaned in some time. Dust covering the barhroom door frame, mold surrounding the whole bathtub, hair gathered on top of the drain. The towels were not much bigger than hand towels.

We have stayed here many timea and the people are just wonderful but this last visit was not so good. Many roaches on the room. Not just the water bugs, i mean the pointy german roaches. We had to empty oir bags and clean everything before bringing into our home. At first just a few but by the 3rd day they were many. On th toilet paper. In the closet, walking across pillow.

I was impressed as i wasn't expecting much. It wasn't perfect but for the price it was good. Kitchen didn't have a spatula and few cooking utensils. The beds were made military style and clean, had recliners. I saw handle was broken on one. I stayed alone but booked for two. There was only one washcloth but i'm sure if i had asked i would've gotten another. The office hours are 09 to 2100. I was checking out at 0600. There is a coffee pot but they don't supply coffee. The manager seems to be good with making sure rules are followed. A person tried to sneak a pet in and was asked to leave. The manager speaks English fluently. I was down for Biketoberfest so i didn't stay at hotel much except last day. It was chilly and windy, the pool despite it wasn't to be open was clean. I noted when there a person did check ph. The view is fantastic. The tv didn't hook to internet but im sure if i went to office it wouldve been taken care of. No it's not perfect for the price, it's fantastic. I'd stay again
Kitchen, fantastic to have a full fridge and a stove
Beds clean and made military style
Sink small but serves its purpose. Shampoo, conditioner and soap dispenser in shower

Enjoyed Our Stay at Sand Castle

Great location, friendly staff, economically price on the positive side. No hot water in shower (but did have hot water in the bathroom and kitchen sinks — go figure??) and the room could use a deep cleaning once in awhile on the negative side. Overall, we will probably stay at Sand Castle again.

Ok except bed

Overall, it's ok. However the bed was the old standard double bed NOT a queen size. The mattress was not the best either , lumpy ! ALL beds these days should be minimum size queen !
