Our stay in Atlantic City was not what we expected and Bally's was quite rundown. It appears as though Harrah's Gaming Corporation puts more money into Harrah's than it does into updating or maintaining all of the casinos it acquired. This was our first visit to AC but frequent Vegas and our local Casino's. The majority of slots required three coins to play in all denominations ranging from $ .25 up. Machines in the $5 and up range were 2 coins. Payouts were deplorable. We went to all of the Casinos and the payouts were the same (very, very poor). Homeless people wandered in and out of the Casinos all night long, begging for money. At times it felt as if we were not in a safe environment. The Casinos should put more money into maintaining the Boardwalk and make it into an attraction . It appears as though the Gaming Corporations are only interested in making money and not providing an enjoyable stay for their customers. The comps at Bally's as with all other Harrah owned properties are terrible. We stayed for 3days /2 nights and spent over $1,000 at Bally's, we each received $5 towards food and that was all. The food was very expensive, especially in the Hotel owned snack shops etc. 2 cups of coffee and two muffins came to $14, the buffet was priced well and the food was excellent. All in all Atlantic city was the worst Gaming experience that we have had and we will not come back nor would we advise anyone else to go to Atlantic city. The Casino/Hotels should wise up and make this experience one that is enjoyable and instead of taking, start to give back some to it's customers.

the hotel was very dark and musty.the employers were not super friendly to us. our toilet was clogged when we checked in and had to wait an hour in our room till someone got there and fixed it. On the 12th the elevators were not working and we were told we would have to take the service elevetor we waited 15 minutes and it never showed so we walked down the 9 floors.

   I Stayed On: August 9, 2009    I stayed here because: price
   Would I recommend it? No Way    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 35 - 49
 
hmmm where do i start, first we checked in on sunday august 9th, didn't have a problem on sunday, but monday we go out to the beach, we get our bag stolen off beach, so i go back to ballys to talk to someone to get a room key that was stolen, they send me to lost and found, i am in their for at least 30 minutes waiting for hotel manager to come and talk to me, after waiting 30 minutes they inform me he is tied up at another casino and cannot talk to me right now. they tell me to go back out to check in desk and they will give me another key to room, so i go back out to check in desk and their is a line with about 100 or so people in and they have 2 people working, and the 1 person didnt seem to know what she was doing, so i waited over 2 hours in line trying to get a key to get back in room, so for my inconvenience they comped me 30 dollars, okay so we go to virginia city buffet tuesday for lunch, line is fairly long and we waited, and we waited and we waited line is not moving at all, so my girlfriend goes out to host asked what is going on, host tells my girlfriend it will be at least and hour and a half until we can get in, and hour and a half for a buffet, give me a break that is really bad. so in closing i just want to say we were really disappointed with our stay at the ballys and would not recommend this place too anyone.

I wish i choose a different casino to stay in, the rooms here were terrible. First when we went into the room it looked okay, at a first glance. Then we went into the bathroom, the toliet was lopsided, the faucet was crucid, there was hair in the sink and on the floor. As if that is not bad enough we go over to look out the window, go to pull the curtain across and there is BLOOD on the curtain. Where the wand is to pull it closed is dirty and has blood on it. Then we look up and the air conditioner vent was begining to come out of the wall. The refridgerator we turn on for three hours and is not even cold. They bring us a new one and leave it in the middle of the room. I go to use the internet to find an ATM compatiable with my bank card, the keyboard doesnt work, now they bring me a new one. The internet will not load any of the web pages so i am charge for the internet i could not even use. The room safe said "low battery", so for fear of not getting it opened once we put our stuff in, we choose to lug everything around with us. Since we were only staying for 2 nights we sucked it up and dealt with this horrifying room. I will never recommend anyone to go to this casino, in side the casino it self smelt bad, and all of the slot machines are exactly the same (just cost more). I would never bring anyone here, not even to walk in the front door and play a slot machine. For the amount of money i actually did end up dumping into those machines i could have gone to Vegas and Back.

Took a long time to get drinks on the floor..Rooms were nice and the rates very reasonable. Great location to boardwalk and adjacent casino's. The buffet at Wild Wild West Casino is great and would recommend eating here even if your not staying.
