Bally's Atlantic City Casino, Atlantic City

Really well ventilated for a casino where you can smoke inside! Normally my allergies do me in, but I was able to stay out all night just fine. Didn't do any gambling, but I had lots of fun drinking and dancing as there are plenty of places to do both. Very easy to have a nice time here, hope to come back soon.

Can't really fault much in this hotel. We had an ocean view super king in Bally's tower which was absolutely fine - only downsides are the bathroom needs a little update and there appears to be an odd gap around the bedroom window which allows you to perfectly hear the neighbouring rooms conversation as if you were in there with them! Luckily our neighbours were super quiet when it mattered and so wasn't an issue, just odd. Room did not smell of smoke which is great considering it is a smoking casino. View was gorgeous. Easy to navigate around. Only tried one restaurant in the hotel, Johnny Rockets which although a mess was super tasty!! Bell service was an elderly man who was so wonderful and friendly - say hi to him if you see him! Had no real issues during our stay.

The renovated rooms are excellent. The place was spotless. Your socks didn't even get dirty from walking on the floor. The only bad thing was which is something I really hate...is I saw 2 roaches. A baby and a full grown one. I didn't want to complain because I didn't want to switch rooms. I might have gotten and older room with the same thing. The restaurant downstairs, " The Yard" was excellent also. I'm curious to see Bally's when all the renovations are completed.

My boyfriend and I stayed to celebrate my 21st birthday. We bought a room with an ocean view, when we got there they gave us a room with a construction view. They told us that even though we pay for ocean view, it doesn't mean we will be guaranteed that view which makes no sense if that's what we are paying for. They proceeded to tell us that they were short staffed on house keepers so our room would not be cleaned until our stay was over. Most of the staff members are rude and seem like they hate their job or are just annoyed when you ask them questions. We went to cafe and grille around 12pm, the lady said there was no problem even though the restaurant closed at 12:30pm. The waiter however was super rude and told us "hurry up and order we are about to close" we couldn't order drinks or dessert because we felt rushed the whole time. Not to mention all the waiters were talking nasty about us and other guests that came in at a later time. We had also made a reservation to eat at Guy Fieri's restaurant, upon arriving we waited almost an hour after our reservation and they told us "you can dine in if you were invited or it's going to be $85 per person if you were not invited". A lot of the food was simply over priced and not even worth it. The only good thing was the casino. Even the staff members at the carousel bar were rude and seemed like they did not want to serve us. Overall it was a waste of money. There are plenty of other hotel/casinos in the area that are worth a try. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE.

The room was unpardonably bad. Motel 6's are nicer. Dinged up furniture, poor lighting, awkward arrangement...not worth it at all. The casino was fine. The restaurants were all overpriced garbage. Avoid. I will say the people who work there are lovely. There's that. Only reason I give it a second star.
