We were sent an offer to stay at Bally's Atlantic City. What they do is put you in the OLD Claridge's. IT is a dump. The carpets had burn holes, the windows were so dirty you could not see outside. IT is a classic bate and swtich. Do not go there. Many other nice hotels for the money

GOING TO ATLANTIC CITY
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/25/09
THIS WILL BE MY FIRST TRIP TO BALLYS ATLANTIC CITY. GETTING VERY NERVOUS AT READING THE REVIEWS WE ARE ARRIVING ON NOV 1ST 2009 ANS SURE HOPE IT IS A LOT BETTER THAN WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING. HAVE STAYED AT BALLYS LAS VEGAS AND LOVED IT. SURE HOPE THIS ISN'T A MAJOR DISSAPPOINTMENT MARIE KAISER CANADA
Just came back from staying at Paris in Las Vegas, had the Perfect Vacation! Decided to head down to AC for a few days, always liked Bally's so I booked 3 nights...drove 6 hours, arriving at noon told room should be ready in about 1 hour or so...checked back, no room, checked every hour, still no room... finally room was ready at 6pm. Next day ...
We were very excited to stay at Ballys it had always been one of our favorites but another casino was giving us far better deals to stay with them. We decided to forgo our better deal and return to Ballys and was put in the Claridge Tower we were SHOCKED !!! It was no better than a cheap hotel room we complained and got a room inside Ballys and it ...

never again!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/30/09
When we checked in the staff was very friendly and even gave us an upgraded room for no additional cost. We get to the room and it was just an average room, but the bathroom was disgusting! The shower was just nasty. The next morning, despite having the Do Not Disturb sign out, housekeeping walked in on us!!!! Thank God we were dressed. They told ...

Disappointed with Bally's
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/05/09
We saw a billboard as we drove in to Atlantic City...."At Bally's, you'll always lose, if you don't treat the staff right"! Seriously?? The staff was not friendly, if you had an issue or a question, they acted as if you were bothering them. We stayed in the Claridge Tower and the room was small. We had a brick wall as a ...

Won't be back after at least 10 years.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/21/09
Casino's profits are off in part to the lack of appeal for their long time patrons. For example, my rewards coupons use to be for the middle of the week (which I prefer to go), now it is Friday, Saturday or Sunday. They know I will not use them. I have been there through the week and it is dead. I wonder why? Then there is the lack of ...

Heavenly beds!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 07/18/09
I stayed for 2 nights and the bed was simply heavenly. (slept like a baby) My room was in the Tower, very clean, bathroom & room very clean. Lovely view. Staff was friendly, polite, helpful. I had no complaints. Quick checkout made life much easier - all I had to do was complete a card and drop it in the drop box in the lobby. I will definitely stay here again and have absolutely no complaints!

BALLYS SINKING FAST
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/18/09
I went to ballys for the day on saturday 6/13/09 and was very disapointed! My friends and I always loved pickles deli and found that the menu is now limited, the food quality went downhill and the restaurant was dirty. In addition, I don't think anyone cleans the menu's anymore. Very sad when there's something a little special about a ...

The fall of a good casino...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/21/09
My family and I have been going to Bally's park casino for about 20 years. We've seen it at it's best and now at it's worse. The whole gimmick of member status (gold/diamond ect...) that Harrahs has put in place put a damper on the casino experience for us and I would imagine other people. When you go to a casino you like to gamble ...
