Sand Castle Inn Good and Bad
The ice machine did not work, the air conditioning controls registered error the whole time, and ledges in the bathrooms had clearly not beeen wiped in a long time. However, the room had a fridge, microwave, a comfortable bed, and extra coffees were always available in the main office at any time. Overall, the room was better than average. The location was great - near everything.

Decent price, clean.
Great price, clean, comfortable. Floors seem to have been redone in our room - laminate floor, no carpet. Bathroom quite spacious. Door frame was very clearly very poorly repaired, but it's serviceable.
