Great stay
The room is nice and look new. The only complaint is the AC. It worked fine but looked somewhat dirty. Staff are very friendly and nice. I would definitely stay again.

Decent stay, barely worth the price
Decent motel, nothing notable or standout about the room or service. Floors were creaky, boards were broken at places, shower was leaky and bathroom had moldy corners. Stay here if you don't have any other great option but still want to be close to Monterey.

Everything was to standard. The rooms have been updated and the area is quiet. I made my reservation with Expedia but discovered the day before that the rooms usually run for 150 a night so I overpaid on Expedia which was disappointing. Book directly with this choice

This is my second time staying at the Sand Castle Inn. Both times have been great with no issues. The inside of the rooms are updated, clean, and comfortable. My mother cannot continuously do stairs, and they were able to easily make sure we got a room on the 1sr floor. There’s a big shopping center close by with Target, Costco, HomeGoods, and more. Overall, it’s a decent and acceptable hotel that’s always reasonably priced. We will be returning here when we come back to the area.

Amazing find! Best price for a great quality room. Nothing bad for our stay. Room was clean, updated, and comfortable. 2nd floor had a balcony pointed to the road. Staff were friendly and helpful. 2-5 minutes from the beach. Would recommend!!!

Good location
The cons were that it was outdated and needs a lot repaired or updated. The pro was the fridge/freezer but mostly the location. Close to several stores, 5 min from beach and within 15-20 min to aquarium.

Window Blinds didn’t close properly. The pillows are uncomfortable, the refrigerator is very noisy. Bright lights shining into the room through all windows

Great place to stay
This place is much better than I anticipated. I went in with little expectation about quality but just want a cheap night of stay with my family. Clean room, comfortable AC, great lightings, clean bathroom, confortable bed & pillows. They also have microwave, coffee maker, fridge/freezer, hair dryer. Plus a common room outside with free ice, paid vending machine for drinks and paid washer & dryer. If I return in the area I’ll definitely consider it again!
