Sand Castle Inn

The room was large, the door lock was loose, the sheets were worn out from washing, and the pillows were so high they made it impossible to sleep. The worst part was the soundproofing. I was woken up around 5 a.m. by the sound of regular exercise upstairs, followed by the sound of running water in the bathroom above, which sounded like a waterfall.

Very cost-effective standard motel next to Panda Express, very convenient!

Cleanliness: I was worried after reading so many other reviews, but I was surprised to find it was quite clean and tidy. Amenities: Hair dryer provided. Rest assured, this hotel is a great value!

It feels so-so. The room still has a smell of decoration. It's basically a motel. There is a big gap between the price and the actual conditions. It's not worth it!

This motel is very neat and clean and had everything we needed. There is a recommended Italian restaurant nearby and many small snack bars (NoodleBar, TacoBell, Starbucks), shops (e.g. 7eleven, DollarTree) and gas stations. The attractions are not within walking distance, but are easy to reach by car.

The hotel has a parking lot, free parking, convenient location, close to the beach, many restaurants around, and opposite is Gusto, a highly rated Italian restaurant. The room is clean and tidy, mainly white, comfortable and warm. The front desk guy has good service and enthusiastically introduced us to the attractions and route maps near Monterey. Thumbs up. Considering the room price, it is cost-effective.

Will come back to live again. Satisfied

Basically, it is clean and feels moderately well-maintained. Soap and shampoo are well stocked, and it is a good cost-effective accommodation. The location isn't much to say, but it's near Highway 1 and there's Monterey nearby, so there's a lot to see.
