The staff was friendly, they went beyond for us! They upgraded us when our room was booked incorrectly. They allowed us to check out later, if needed, and were just wonderful. I recommend staying here, if you have to do any activities at the pier or harbor. We were in a regatta, so it was super convenient.

A very comfortable and nice place to stay

My husband and I really like the Castillo Inn. It’s old but kept up very nice. The beds are very comfortable and bathroom is nice. The only thing I miss is a microwave. We have a small one that we bring. We’ve been staying there for probably 10 years at least. We have tried a few orhers but always come back.
