The property is conveniently located by the beach boardwalk. However it is not well constructed since much noise of adjacent rooms was easily heard. The staff was satisfactory.

I can't say enough about this wonderful gem on the beach. The hotel is has a great location with a fun and cheeky vibe. Mostly, the staff is just incredible. Madison helped me so much and I am so very grateful. My evening was spent watching the sunset on their deck, curled up by the fire pit, reading a book. Heaven. Would stay there again and again.

Great location, clean, modern, comfortable with no frills. Only downside is no pool and the bar area is small and closes early. I’d recommend for families and also they are very dog Friendly! We’d definitely return again.

Good location and the hotel is nice. Our room was on ground floor which meant people milling about outside our room window and also no safe in room which was a bit annoying. Otherwise a nice hotel with a perfect position on Pismo beach.

We stayed at the Sandcastle Hotel for 6 days/5 nights. Staff were very friendly. Easy to request for towels and other things we needed. Rooms were clean with great ocean and beach views. Hotel is right on the beach. Downtown is blocks away with many different local shops, restaurants, and farmers market on the pier. Loved our stay and will definitely stay again.
