Great location and staff.
The staff here was amazing. Several times I forgot my key in the room and the staff made me a new key with a smile. Even had the manager run and get us a key once. The location is amazing, we walked on the beach and down to shops and restaurants every day. Would definitely recommend this place and we look forward to coming back.

Nice family stay.
This was our second time staying at the Castillo Inn. The rooms and staff we friendly and this time we did get the room with the patio. It was nice to be able to walk out and sit out. Only downfall that is not against the hotel but the park across the street had a lot of homeless. Plus someone was honking their horn every night that was parked across the street. I would come back because the hotel is great and the rooms are good size.
