Ce qu'en disent des voyageurs

À l'hôtel Sandcastle Inn & Motel, les commentaires décrivent un séjour économique et indépendant avec un accès par code à la porte, proche de la plage et de la ville. L'emplacement pratique et quelques attentions agréables, comme les bornes d'arcade en chambre, compensent des chambres vieillottes, une propreté irrégulière et un service mitigé.

Plusieurs clients signalent des frais de vérification supplémentaires, des difficultés d'enregistrement, des codes de porte erronés ou changeants, ainsi que des occasions de double réservation ou de confusion concernant les remboursements. Les points positifs incluent l'aide courtoise de certains membres du personnel, des nuits paisibles pour certaines chambres et des cuisines américaines rudimentaires, bien que le Wi-Fi et l'équipement puissent être peu fiables. Attendez-vous à un hébergement abordable et sans fioritures, avec des compromis en matière d'entretien et de gestion.

Équipements

L'accès par code et les cuisines américaines sont courants, et plusieurs chambres disposent de bornes d'arcade nostalgiques. Les clients notent des problèmes récurrents avec l'équipement (télécommandes TV, joysticks d'arcade, réfrigérateurs trop froids) et, parfois, un parking restreint ou bondé.

The room looked exactly like it was pictured. We were sent our unit number and key code before we arrived. So when we arrived, we just went in. We had one problem with our key code after we had used it. We sent a text message and it was fixed immediately. Will definitely be going back!

Check in was easy with combo lock. No need to check in at hotel. Room was average size with everything you would need for cooking. Has small sink fridge combo . Which I had never seen before. Room was average in size. if your looking for an inexpensive place to crash while your in town. It does the job. Quarter mile downhill to beach. The updates to make this look more oalita le were just pieces of wood going up the wall. Looked a lot better in pics. Big surprise was the Mrs pacman on the wall. Had a bit of fun till we realized the joystick does not move Mrs pacman down. Just up and side to side but still fun. Place was clean host was very nice. It is what it is. Nice place to stay in a budget.

Cheap little place for a couple nights. Company contact was in touch before your stay with check in info. Uses electronic door locks with codes, no keys to worry about I like that. It was my wife, 2 kids and myself. Room was good for just a couple nights. Not sure when trash day is, but all the barrels were full, even the "recycling barrels" were full of trash instead of recyclables. We were in unit 4, could use some new flooring/updating but it was serviceable. Had everything we needed for a couple nights. We would stay again, the price was what I expected for value and what you get. There is a dollar general down the road if you forget something, as well as a Walgreens. Mile walk to Pier or drive down, we drove and paid for parking. Biggest thing I didn't like, which others mentioned in reviews was the mandatory $35 fee for verification. It's just an added fee on top of the price, which I have never seen when booking hotels. It was still cheapest with the fee for our trip in the area.

Propreté

Les avis sont contrastés : de nombreux commentaires font état d'odeurs de moisi ou de moisissure et de salles de bains ou de douches mal nettoyées, tandis que d'autres ont trouvé les chambres propres. Le souci du détail du personnel d'entretien varie.

Our stay went very well overall, and everything listed in the description was present upon arrival. The location is convenient and the hotel is pleasantly quiet, which we greatly appreciated. However, the room could have been cleaner — there was still toilet paper in the bowl when we arrived, which suggests a lack of attention to detail during housekeeping. Additionally, several features in the room are outdated and in need of maintenance, such as the main window blind, which was broken and let in too much light. For these reasons, I unfortunately cannot give a 5-star rating — or even 4 stars — despite the good aspects of our stay.

The mattress was comfy. Mosquitos inside. Broken shade i had to put a papertowel in it to block anyone from looking in. Shower was cracked and not clean. Pacman machine joystick didnt work. I was given the wrong code to get in and i tried calling but went unanswered. Didnt respond until i text the number. Probably wont stay here again for the $100 they charged. The photos in the listing are for another room which looks like it has been updated.

Nous avions réservé au Sandcastle inn motel pour la nuit du 24 au 25 août. Premièrement, il n’y a AUCUN accueil à cet hôtel, c’est une arrivée indépendante. Ils vous envoi parmis les plusieurs courriels de confirmation, un courriel avec le numéro de chambre le code de la porte. Impossible de parler à quelqu’un si vous avez un problème! On vous envoi un message texte afin de vous « identifier » et il vous demande de payer une protection de 55$ Us pour vos biens dans la chambre. NE LE PRENEZ PAS, c’est une arnaque. * n’allez simplement pas à ce motel* En rentrant dans ma chambre 5, l’odeur était parsemée de moissisure, ammoniaque et febreeze pour essayer de camoufler. 2 grosses fourmies marchaient sur le mur collé au lit. Une grosse bulle d’eau faisait lever la peiture et il y avait des coulisses. L’air climatisée était remplie de moisissure. La salle de bain n’était pas propre il y avait des poils ainsi que de la moisissure à même le sol de la douche. Le rideau de douche aussi était plein de moisissure. Nous avons décidé de quitter la chambre et de ne pas y dormir. Nous sommes resté moins d’une heure pour réfléchir et nous avions déjà des symptômes reliés à la moisissure. Bref, payez un peu plus cher pour avoir mieux car jamais je n’aurai dormi ici.

We were impressed by the @ home atmosphere of the owners offering a hot plate, sink, untensils, cookware, mini fridge. Very welcoming decor/bright & light. Management were very nice/courteous. The downside is that it could have been cleaner - floors and baseboards, etc. Shower wasn't that efficient re: hot enough water. We would return though. Waiting to make sure we get a receipt for staying an extra night and it not going through via the internet/just dealt w/ the management, directly.

The owner was very kind. The room was spacious. Full filled our 2 night stay. Wish it was cleaner. Could definitely walk to downtown old orchard if you were not lugging much. Its about a 20ish minute walk. The motel is near a busy road. Kind of noisy and you can see headlights in the window when cars go by. But it accommodated our needs fora short stay.

It worked for what we needed for a quick, inexpensive weekend stop, but it's a bit tight for 3 people. The owner was very kind and accommodating. The wifi was iffy, but that's an easy fix, and having Roku TV was nice. It's on the first floor beside the parking lot so we had easy access to our car, for loading and unloading luggage. It's not on the beach, but it's a short two minute drive from the beach and even closer to Asian House Chinese food, Davids Subs for breakfast, and Dollar General. I loved the location.

This place is a scam. They have you register in advance on some sketchy website, which is a big lengthy process requiring photos of yourself(??!!!) in addition to your expedia account, then they require you to add another 35 dollar fee for damages on the website that Expedia does not mention in the fees. Then no one answers questions or responds to calls. STAY AWAY FROM THIS RENTAL.

We never stayed. We were turned away because the property said we never registered which we did! So we lost the $185 deposit. I believe Expedia has proof of my payment. My card ended in 3320 Visa. I now have a new card if I can get my credit. Please help me with this and let me know. Thank you. Penny Tanner. We never stayed nor got our money back. That's the best I can do. PT

Emplacement

Généralement pratique pour la plage et les attractions, avec de nombreux commentaires mentionnant une marche de 10 à 20 minutes ou un court trajet en voiture. Certains apprécient le cadre plus calme, à l'écart de la jetée, bien que quelques-uns mentionnent le bruit de la circulation près de la route.

The property seems to be going through some renovations. Room was clean and staff was friendly. But, it was advertised as a standard studio with kitchenette - there were pans in the new cabinets, but no cooktop or toaster oven. Just a microwave, small refrig. and toaster. Location was good, walkable to see a performance at the Seaside Pavilion, and about a 15-20 min. walk to the beach.
