8/10 Very good

Quick and easy check in, overall good stay

Stayed for one night only. The check in process was quick and very convenient. The room was clean with a lot of shops nearby. My only issue was with the blinds and the sound of traffic. The blinds dont close fully and the hotel is near a highway. Overall, my stay was good. I would stay there again.

We have stayed at the Sand Castle Inn several times. The Room is always clean, the staff friendly. Walking distance to the Beach. We use to go to other Inns occasionally, but now the Sand Castle Inn is our “go to” place when we visit Seaside.
