4/10 Fair

Hotel is very dated for the price. You are paying for proximity to Boardwalk, beach, and shops. The hotel could use an entire property makeover. Especially with a brand new competitor next door for similar price. This is our first stay and will not return. We will stay next door at the new hotel.

Just awesome!

Queen room=beautiful view and comfortable bed. Impressive bathroom shower and shared patio deck. The staff at the Casablanca are helpful and kind. Walking distance to just about everything….and again…the beach view is amazing! You can hear the ocean waves in your sleep. We will be back!

4/10 Fair

The room was not properly cleaned — the floors hadn’t been swept or mopped, there was sand in the sheets, and the balcony had spider webs with dusty furniture.
Jessica, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

This hotel has an amazing location. Outside of that it is not a nice place. It is terribly rundown, extremely loud and no frills. Very overpriced for what you get, which is nothing more than a rundown motel.
