Our room was excellent. It was clean and a very large room. The front desk ckerk who checked us in was fabulous. Very happy and helpful. This young man made our day. I wish I knew his name. Please check who was working on Wednesday, Feb 11, 2026 around 4:30pm to give him a thank you. He was also there when we checked out on Friday, Feb 13, 2026 11am and was just as friendly as he was on Wednesday.

Such an amazing stay. We were there for our ninth anniversary and this place made everything moment memorable. I will not give away our unit but we felt like the king and queen of the area. The room was well lit, clean, bed was comfy like home, the out space was spacious and awesome, the bathroom was nothing short of perfection with a wide mouth sink, filtered water!, and comfy shower/bathtub. The whole room was beautiful designed. The staff were welcoming, helpful and professional. This is my new place to stay when in SB. Thank you to the Castillo staff for everything and keep up the great work.
