Always glad to stay in Atlantic city myself and hubby ran into friends we haven"t seen in years. The boardwalk was hosting a race that weekend with a band and refreshments we got to see live entertainment, beach goers,bike riders and a host of other events. The convention center was having Patti Labelle, and some other guests there that weekend. the outlets were having some good bargains and we caught a movie at the Tropicana.

Picked Bally's to be right on the boardwalk, but got stuck in an ancient, worn out Clairidge well back off the boardwalk instead (bait & switch?). First room assigned wasn't even cleaned yet when we got up to it! Had to drag our luggage all the way back down and then over to Bally's front desk for new room assignment. Old 50s white furniture, no bed skirt over bare box springs, etc. Wife was livid. Not the Atlantic City I remember.

Great value for the money if you take advantage. get free casino card and get a free show! One of the great unlisted advantages of staying at this hotel is that you can rent a bicycle for $8 an hour to ride the boardwalk with. The rooms and floors have been totally redone recently and the upgrade is significant. Only drawback is televisions are still old and channel selection minimal for cable, though they have five Chinese language channels available!

Rooms need updating. There was only one garbage can in the room in the bathroom. The hair dryer in the bathroom did not work. There is no place to hang a towel that you can reach when you get out of the shower. Elevators were dirty. I just thin ... more

Rooms need updating. There was only one garbage can in the room in the bathroom. The hair dryer in the bathroom did not work. There is no place to hang a towel that you can reach when you get out of the shower. Elevators were dirty. I just think over all, updating needs to be done. There are a variety of very nice shops to go into. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Takes a long time though once you order a drink for the waitress to come back with it.

Overall this stay was not up to the usual standards of the Showboat hotel. Our past experiences were all fine but this time we seemed to encounter staff members that were sub-par. I realize that due to circumstances occasionally staff members have a bad day also as they are human like everyone else. The only thing that struck me as openly inconsiderate was the noise in the hall made by the room cleaning staff. I go there to relax while my wife enjoys playing the slots. My wife seemed to have a good time except she was not satisfied with the unclean feel of the bed. I on the other hand was very happy when we finally returned home.

The employees was very nice. The room Was clean. Everything was great. I will recommend this hotel to my family, friends and co workers. In the summer time i will surley bring my whole family here. My husband and i just wated a mini mini vacation ... more

The employees was very nice. The room Was clean. Everything was great. I will recommend this hotel to my family, friends and co workers. In the summer time i will surley bring my whole family here. My husband and i just wated a mini mini vacation and we very sceptic about the booking and rooms. But let me tell u we got more than we bargin for in a great way. With all the discounts and everything else. After 28 years of marriage, it was the first time my husband and i actually went to a hotel and relax and enjoy ourselves. I wish we could of stayed longer. But some body have to work to pay the bills. Thank you for a great stay. We will be back soon.

The casino smoking section should not be at the bottom of an escalator. Non smokers have to walk through the smoking area to get to the tables. The smoking area for slot machines would better serve in a separate area or room. There was not a night club for singles to go to. The Hard Rock Cafe has great food and service. Access to the beach and boardwalk is right out the back door and very convenient. The staff at the hotel were eager to please guests.
