   Would I recommend it? Yes!    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 18 – 24
 
My stay at the Showboat was great. I felt welcomed by the pleasant, informative staff that made extensive efforts to be sure my needs were not neglected. Staff made enticing suggestions for entertainment and dining as they continued to be sure I was pleased. Waitresses in the casinos were very attentative. My stay at Showboat was so pleasurable that I continue utilize this location for many accommodations when I visit Atlantic City.

   Would I recommend it? Yes!    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 50+
 
OVERALL OUR EXPERIENCE AT SHOWBOAT WAS VERY GOOD AND WOULD DEFINATELY RECOMMEND ONE TO STAY HERE. WE STAYED IN THE BOURBON TOWER. THE ROOMS WERE VERY NICE AND COMFORTABLE, AND HAD A SAFE IN THE ROOM. THIS TOWER IS CLOSE TO THE BOARDWALK AND WALKWAY TO THE TAJ MAHAL AND RESORTS, WHICH YOU COULD WALK TO FROM BOARDWALK OR INSIDE THE CASINOS.

WENT TO THE MANSION CAFE AND ENJOYED THE 1/4 BURGER FOR $3.00. FOR ANOTHER $1 YOU CAN GET FRENCH FRIES ADDED.

SERVICE AT THE CASINO WAS EXCELLENT. IF YOU WANTED A DRINK WHILE PLAYING, THE WAITRESS WAS AVAILABLE. NOT LIKE OTHER CASINOS WHERE FINDING A WAITRESS OF ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE.

THE SERVICE FOR SLOT MACHINE MALFUNCTIONS WAS ALSO VERY GOOD. I HAD ONLY ONE EXPERIENCE WHERE THE MACHINE WOULDN'T PAY ME WHEN I CASHED OUT. THE TICKET JAMMED. I PUSHED THE SERVICE BUTTON AND THE ATTENDENT WAS THERE IMMEDIATLEY.

   I Stayed On: March 31, 2008    I stayed here because: price, poker room
   Would I recommend it? Yes!    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 25 – 34
 
Very nice hotel room - appeared to have been recently renovated? Lots of space for a standard room. Poker room is nice - only downside is it is on the 2nd floor away from the main casino. The poker room is soon to be relocated to the 1st floor, so there goes that issue! Great food at the Showboat - especially the Buffet. Very good quality food at a reasonable price. Had a great time and will definitely be back!

   I Stayed On: November 22, 2007    I stayed here because: price, poker tournaments
   Would I recommend it? Most Likely    My visit was for: Leisure    My Age is: 35 - 49
 
The rooms at the Showboat are very nice. They also have newly renovated marble bathrooms that include a seperate head area. The downside to the hotel/casino is the location and the restaurant options. At any given time at least 2 of their specialty restaurants seem to be closed, and the SPA is only open on the weekends. As far as gambling, the table limits are never less than $15, on a rare occassion you can find one $10 table. I am not a fan of the Casino layout, but the POKER ROOM is very nice. Limited action though on the cash tables
