Disliked: Staff & service, amenities

I had to text some mystery person to get anything we needed like coffee, towels, etc. I asked for room to be serviced and they left what we needed on a chair outside our room. The floor got very sandy as we were by the beach and no one came in to sweep or change sheets after a few days. Unacceptable for the price paid.

Looking for a 5 star resort? Keep scrolling. Looking for a small, quiet, clean, bug free room with a comfortable bed that’s less than a minute walk to the sand and 5 minute walk to the pier? If so this place is great. We stayed here 7days and it was great! Check in kind of irritated me at first but wasn’t a big deal.

First time here , the “ contactless “ check in process seemed almost harassing Nothing on the Expedia website said you had to pay for parking yet I seem to recall the motel saying I had to pay extra for parking , which I did not . The room is nice but the 5 messages seemed excessive

The room itself was great, very clean. We had some trouble with our code to get in and the room doesn’t lock from the inside so I had to put the coffee table in front of the door so my toddler wouldn’t try to open it.

I appreciate that it was a contactless check in process and the location to the beach was right across the street. There are also plenty of dining options available and convenience stores around for last minute items. The local bus service also stops in font of the location in case you want to see a little more of the city.

We were very disappointed with our stay at the Sand Castle Inn and Suites in Imperial Beach. The room was in a state of disrepair as caulking was peeling in both room areas the view out of our window was of the laundry facility. The bed was not very comfortable, too hard. Paint drips splattered the window in the door. No waste paper basket. The towels were rough, scratchy and very dingy, I use better towels on my dog. Not a fan of the contactless check in with the host; we were not allowed early check in due to housekeeping issues. Based on the condition of the room I don’t think they ever found a member of house keeping team. One last thing it appears that we were misinformed about the quality of this location based on what we saw on the website.

Everything was great and went even better when we arrived in the room. Everything was better than expected. I loved the view, the service was quick and easy, short walk to the beach and the room was aesthetically pleasing.

Nice motel

It was just right for the price looking toward a park at the beach. Check in was a challenge, but someone was very friendly and helpful after a couple of phone calls. Bed was very comfortable, the room remodelled, nice view and nice little patio outside our door with a view of the ocean across a nice little park. Walking distance to everything on Imperial beach !

Cute little room right across the street from the beach. Room was very clean. There is no AC but the breeze from the beach keeps the room comfortable.
