Our last stay here a couple of years ago was nice. But it is now under new management and it has gotten a bit rundown. When we checked in the lady at the front desk was a bit curt. The air conditioner was smelly and the TV had to be reset by the staff 2X. The telephone did not work, it was missing the cord.My wife complained that the bed made her itch. They had moved us to another room, but it was not much better. The breakfast staff and the breakfast was good. Maintenance staff was also nice.

DO NOT waste your money!! Check in went smoothly, disappointed in our room. Rusty shower, not cleaned well. Dirty light switches. Stains on bed comforter and sheets. TV broken. We were told they would come to fix it the following day but we were only staying the night. Stayed at the hotel with several other families and we ALL had fraudulent charges on our CC the following morning. BEWARE

The Casa Blanca Inn Checked so many boxes! Diane was great at check-in. When our TV system wasn't working, she came to our room, personally, and tried to fix it. It didn't get fixed till the following evening so she gave us a small discount on our room. It was great to feel heard. There were some nice choices for the breakfast. Very convenient. I loved that we were able to walk to the beach from the property. Tired of driving! It was Avery nice experience and we will be back!

The woman at the front desk appeared out "out of it" as she startled me from behind. As I approached the lobby I heard a woman's voice behind me saying "how's it going?". I was startled due to the sound of her voice and her appearance. She did not look like hotel staff. After going through an awkward 10 minutes checking in we headed to our room. The room appeared rundown and smelly. My wife decided to go to the pool with my son as I tried to relax in the room. As I'm relaxing I get repeated calls from my wife requesting that I come to the pool. After a while I decided to go see what is going on in the pool area. As I made my way to the pool area approaching the gate I noticed what appeared to be a homeless man darting out of the pool and out of the pool area. I was in shock as the homeless man my wife and were the only people at the pool area. The homeless man ran off before I could ask him what he was doing there. I then went to the front desk where the same homeless looking receptionist was and explained what happened. She dismissed it as nothing and then had the nerve to call me a wife beater. I then called the sheriff department. To my astonishment, the deputy did not care at all that random homeless people were using the hotel swimming pool. I was shocked as it is obviously dangerous having random homeless people using the pool where children are playing. There is no excuse for what I experienced and San Clemente as a whole should be ashamed.

Mixed Review

This hotel is that a great location! The people that work there are super friendly :-) it’s unfortunate how rundown the carpeting is and how poorly cleaned the outside area is. There was mud and food on the elevator from when we arrived until when we left that haven’t gotten cleaned up. Casablanca has great potential… Just needs an upgrade IMHO!

Even though it was a bit older, I enjoyed my stay. The location was close to the beach, shopping & lots of restaurants. I could see the ocean out my front door! Nice pool area but I didn’t have time to indulge. Loved the spa tub though!!! Beautiful town and the free shuttle is a plus!

The woman during check in was unpleasant, it was like I was annoying her for checking in. He service toward the gentleman before me was the same. That was the horrible part of the stay. The good ones were, the room was great and comfy. Very clean and roomy. And the morning breakfast attendant was so nice and helpful. I appreciate her conversation and service.
