The location was perfect. Despite it being a busy weekend, the property was quiet. The only reason why I gave it a 4 out of 5 is that there was an ant issue. Other than that, I’d definitely book again!

Casablanca is very convenient to go beach and boardwalk. I do wish the flooring wasn’t sticky and cracking noise when walking throughout the room . I loved my night stay and so did my family.

We had a great (partial) beach view from our room, even though we were on the street. It was really fun to be so close to the Boardwalk, even though the weather was rainy when we visited. Parking was on the interior of the hotel, and felt safe. It was very convenient to walk to Ideal and Firefish Restaurants - the hotel restaurant was being renovated. The staff was very friendly too.
