We saw the hotel while walking down the street and walked in to see what the prices were like. They were over $50.00 to $100 cheaper than other hotels in the area. The people at the front desk were kind and polite and answered all our questions. We booked two nights. The room was small, but all we were planning... more

DO NOT STAY HERE. I've reported them to the Better Business Bureau, of which they have one outstanding complaint they refuse to respond to. I stayed one night. Did not enjoy it, and checked out early. I was immediately told that they would not refund my money. I was not asked why I was checking out. I was treated with... more

Casablanca Motel is my favorite place to stay in Santa Cruz. It's right across the street from the main beaches and walking distance to the downtown area. Walking distance to the best surf learning spot in California. Also, you are right there by the Boardwalk and Pier Restaurants. The restaurant had a great wine list and good California Cuisine.

Having gone to university at UC Santa Cruz and spent a couple summers living there, I like to go back and visit my favorite haunts from time to time. Usually, I stay at one of the cheapies on Ocean St. or at the twee, doily-infested Babbling Brook if I'm feeling spendy... This time though, my wife and I stayed at... more

I booked this hotel in advance and should have known from the beginning that it would not be a good experience. They insisted on a faxed reservation request with my credit card info, as they are not set up to book over the internet. They did not send any confirmation and I had to call twice to make sure that... more

The photos were so very misleading. I have been to beach hotels before but at least they were clean. The people working there were rude and disinterested. I would never subject my family to a place like this again. more

This is a great hotel. I read many reviews here and was a bit concerned as we headed there. It is a very nice beach hotel. I think they are a bit overpriced, but you kinda expect that from a hotel on the beach. The view from our room was perfect. The room wasn't elaborately furnished but was very nice,... more

Oh My God, What a dump. we checked in and quickly checked out again after viewing the "Honeymoon suite" told them it was not suitable they then shows us a sea front normal room. I was shocked at the standard and for what they were charging. While we were there another couple had viewed there room and basically checked out... more

My family and I travel a lot, and usually have good experiences. But the Casa Blanca Inn provided us with he WORST hotel experience ever. When we checked in we were upsold to a room with a beach view. Turns out the room (6A) was a converted garage. It seemed appealing at first because it opened right onto the street... more
