We have stayed at the Sand Castle Inn several times. The Room is always clean, the staff friendly. Walking distance to the Beach. We use to go to other Inns occasionally, but now the Sand Castle Inn is our “go to” place when we visit Seaside.

Quick checkin. Clean. Quiet during our stay. The bed was comfortable (for me). The only downside was the shower did not fully engage so the tub filled with water (ankles deep) but overall a lovely experience. Dining is within walking distance (a quick drive).
