Comfortable and Clean

I was here for 2 nights. It was clean. It's not far from anything, and the bus stop is right in front of the hotel. The breakfast is very limited..., could be much better.

Perfect Accommodations

The office personal checked me in, issued my room key and since I arrived a bit early, it was suggested by the nice lady in the office that I can either visit the Aquarium, Fisherman's wharf ,or Just hang around until the room was available (they were being cleaned when I arrived)... The aquarium, the Wharf, and local museums were in close proximity to the motel so I was able to sight see, shop, eat, visit the local banks, post office...... It was truly a pleasant experience.... I would HIGHLY recommend El Castell to anyone.

Truly Forgetable

Next to a seedy nightclub that rocked out at 2am. The plunger next to the toilet was all I needed to know about the place. The pool looked like it had been under repair since the last ice age. Need I say more?
