Although the hotel had an atmsphere of days gone by, the rooms showed that as well. Very much in need of updates. Rates were comparable to updated rooms, but without the updates. Door was about to break, and room smelled moldy.

The Sandcastle Inn was not a great experience on Tybee. Though the staff were friendly, the low cost attracted a poor clientele. Between drunken parties, big loud dogs, and the cops banging on a room door at 7:30am, I can't recommend the establishment. Further, I found a few bugs in the bathroom and on the bed. Plus, I couldn't make it the first day of my reservation, but was charged for it anyway. Just a heads up to all tempted by the low price. You'll get what you pay for at this location.

Stayed 3 nights off-season (March) and was perfectly happy with the Sandcastle when considering price/amenities ratio. It's not a fancy hotel, but met our needs just fine at a good price compared to other options on Tybee. Super-convenient location that is walkable to just about everything, including numerous restaurants, the "main" street stores and dining/bars, and the beach (a block or so away). Room was basic but fine, clearly an older motel that has been somewhat (but not totally) updated. Our only real complaint was noise from the street, but that's probably an issue with other hotels on that street as well. If you are a light sleeper you may want to bring earplugs or run the HVAC fan all night as we did, which made it fine.
