Loved Casablanca inn

Staff was friendly and very nice, everything is clean and comfortable! The atmosphere is especially peaceful at night with the fountain, and the pool and hot tub are a real treat- not to mention the jacuzzi tub in our room! It was a wonderful stay for me and my partner.

The Casablanca is conveniently located close to many things around San Clemente. It was SUPER quiet at night and the bed was very comfy. The breakfast options did leave a lot to be desired, but the dining area, as well as the rest of the motel, was spotless. I would definitely recommend to a single traveler or couple.

Feels like family

Casablanca Inn has a wonderful staff, and Erin is the top of the top. They are so lucky to have her. Their beds are brand new and so so very comfortable. They are really low-key easy-going casual. You don’t have permits or places to park that you cannot park you just park and go to your place. It’s close to the beach And just an Uber Lyft from a lot of things. There’s also High Tide coffee across the street. They have a lot of return visitors, and I will be one of them. Grateful to find this little gem in San clemente.

For the price, it was clean and quiet. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. If it’s super full some of the parking spots were super tight but there was enough parking when we stayed there. Will stay there again!

The property is conveniently located in San Clemente with short walks to outlet shopping, downtown (Del Mar) as well as some convenience and other shops on PCH. The included continental breakfast was well stocked with waffles, yogurt, oatmeal, snack bars, fruit, juices, and coffee as well as available to 10 am, which is an unusual bonus. The property itself is not well maintained with some damage to curtains and wear and tear in rooms. Don't expect expect anything other than utilitarian amenities - no lotion, bulk shampoo and soap. This is consistent with what I expected for a moderate price, near-the-beach surfer hotel. Don't stay here without visiting the diviest of dive bars 2 blocks down, Knuckleheads.

This motel is in great location to see many things in San Clemente and San Juan Capistrano. The room was clean and the price was great, plus free parking. It is an older property, but offered amenities such as microwave, refrigerator and TV. I recommend this hotel for the budget traveler who wants to see the sites, and have a comfortable room, to come back to.
