It met our needs and budget for pet friendly accommodation. The stove was extremely clean, likely because there were no pots or pans or bakeware. ##### Ronald Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Janet 7 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Sand castle The beds were comfortable. It was quiet. But there were fruit flies. ##### Janet Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kyle 29 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The staff were sweet genuine people. It's not the Ritz but they gave me a nice place for the night with my dog , at a reasonable price. I will return next year. ##### Kyle Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### John 27 Aug 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities I liked that the beds were in separate rooms and the beds were comfortable. Also, it was a full apartment if that’s what you are needing. We were just there for sleeping one night. The rooms were clean as well. Unfortunately there was quite a bit of noise in the hallway during the night and it echoed into our room. The property was all a bit rundown but we just needed a place to sleep without spending a fortune. You get what you pay for. ##### John Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Desiree 22 Jun 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cons: Mattress and linen had stains. No hair dryer in bathroom. Walls have many holes/loose boards. Tub faucet taped back onto wall. Smelled extremely extremely strongly of cigarette smoke. Floors had crumbs and were clearly not vacuumed. Stayed for two days and did not receive room service/ refill on towels and linens. Pros: management very friendly and helpful. Answered all questions my partner and I had. Cheap pricing and located in an area with decent shopping and eating. Close to the beach (15 min drive). Good place to stay if you are out all day and just need a place to sleep. ##### Desiree Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cherie 9 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Price is right, people are kind, the room is clean, beautiful and the beds are comfortable. ##### Cherie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashlee 9 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities It was a very pleasant stay! ##### Ashlee Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### paul 16 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Close to beaches and stores, recommend to anyone to stay here, great staff, friendly, kids loved it. ##### paul Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### senthilkumar 6 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good Stay at night with family ##### senthilkumar Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kishan 12 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very nice property ##### Kishan Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Michael 22 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A nice, clean, affordable spot to crash.

The room smelled terrible. The bathroom wasn't clean and the floors had hair on them. Do not stay here. You would do better to sleep in your car. The shower was disgusting and the shower lever to turn on the shower was broken. The curtain was bad and there was no bath mat. The hotel itself was dirty and dusty. Wish we had never stayed here and wish we could have got our money back. AWFUL!!! ##### Megan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### p 1 Jul 2025 Liked: Room comfort #### Bring your dog ...for security The sand castle was ok considering they do except pets. We expect a little less for this reason so are stay was ok to good. The halls carpets are very stained., the rear entrance door was not locked, and rooms have a keyed knob and no deadbolt. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. Overall we had a quiet restful night. ##### p Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ---
