Bathroom

Food
91- “And they recently redid the rooms as well as the restaurant area. They included a new Gordon Ramsay Steakhouse where we used our diamond celebration dinner and it was super delicious.” 11:56
- “Yeah, absolutely. It's got ton of memorabilia from your favorite artist and it has great restaurants right on the boardwalk including one of our favorites in all of Atlantic City, Council Oak Fish.” 11:08
Location
65- “Super 8 Motel Beach Block is located near the famous Boardwalk and the Atlantic beach. This is the reason why the hotel is a perfect choice if you want to be so proximate to the city's most frequented places without having to be far from the beach as well.” 8
- “Ocean also has a ton of other activities to do for the entire family, including the largest Topgolf suite in the entire northeast. And it's got a great location at the end of the boardwalk on the beach.” 12:53
Noise
86- “One of the nagging issues is the slow elevators, especially around 10 am on check out day. Pro tip: if you're on a lower floor, take an elevator up to go back down or you will have to wait several cycles to get an empty elevator car.” 20
Room
47- “I agree Hard Rock is horrible. I stayed two nights two weeks ago. Stains on bath towels, sheets, carpet, & window sill.” 16
- “The rooms themselves received very little love before re-opening, and while the bathrooms are nice and up to Hyatt standards, the rest of the room needs some more updating.” 19

Value

- “So, the adult pool area at Ocean Casino Resort has changed. It used to be we go there and then pay for your chair, which included the minimum spend of any drinks and food you would like to throughout the day. Now, let me run yesterday. They said that you have to pay a fixed price for the chair, which doesn't come with anything.” 13:11

Quotes run exactly as travelers wrote them — spelling and all. We trim for length, never for tidiness.
- “The hotel itself also has a ton of open space and is very disjointed with some restaurants and the pool being on the hotel lobby floor, but the casino and other restaurants being on a completely separate floor. There are more signs now than in the Revel days, but it remains a bit of a maze to navigate.” 19
- “Tbh harrahs is my favorite to stay at. All rooms are renovated and have a decent amount of food options” 10
- “Ocean views are fantastic. Lots of good restaurants.” 16
- “And they recently redid the rooms as well as the restaurant area. They included a new Gordon Ramsay Steakhouse where we used our diamond celebration dinner and it was super delicious.” On camera11:56
- “Yeah, absolutely. It's got ton of memorabilia from your favorite artist and it has great restaurants right on the boardwalk including one of our favorites in all of Atlantic City, Council Oak Fish.” On camera11:08
- “Ocean hands down. You have a pool there are plenty of things to do on boardwalk for kids and if you want a big pool you have the beach right there as well. It also has great dining options as well.” 10
- “Comfortable rooms, free Wi-Fi, and a complimentary light breakfast help make every stay simple and convenient.” On camera34:19
- “In fact, it is generously offering free breakfast to every guest saving you from additional dining expenses.” 8
- “The quality of restaurants has been declining as well as of late.” 19
- “And on top of all the entertainment, the Super 8 by Wyndham Atlantic City makes sure you're taken care of. They seriously care about their guests' comfort, so there's room service if you're feeling peckish, and they always have breakfast ready to go. The perfect way to begin your thrill-filled day.” 21
- “We come to Atlantic City twice a year with our 3 school aged boys for sports tournaments. We have stayed at Harrah's twice and we are not fans.. the crowd, the cigarette smoke, the cost of food etc.” 10
- “You have a pool there are plenty of things to do on boardwalk for kids and if you want a big pool you have the beach right there as well. It also has great dining options as well. Such as Harper's for breakfast and whalburgers, zhen bang and villain & saints for dinner/ lunch options.” 10
- “One of the best things about the hotel is its complimentary breakfast offering that is delivered to your own room every morning.” 8
- “Another major problems with Caesars in Atlantic City is the rooms come with a Caesars Las Vegas like premium, but the property is just not that special. The rooms are nice, but not nice enough to command significant premiums over higher ranked hotels on this list.” 19
- “The only slight miss is that during the non-summer months, there is a limited/no service at the indoor pool, but there is a bar next door to the pool, avoiding the same long walk I had to make for a drink at Hard Rock.” 19
- “The customer service has just been downright terrible these past couple of years, having been treated with hostility even by members of hotel management and it is almost shocking to see.” 19
- “And honestly, the customer service there is just really gone downhill as of late. So, even though it's part of Total Rewards program, just like Caesars and Bally's, it's just not the same hotel it used to be 3 to 5 years ago.” On camera12:10
- “One of the nagging issues is the slow elevators, especially around 10 am on check out day.” 20
- “Great service with 24 hour front desk available.” 8
- “The newer tower at the Borgata is the Water Club, which provides a more VIP feeling with its own separate entrance and check-in area. The rooms are top notch too, though not necessarily more spacious.” 19
- “The valet parking is actually very fast and I would tip a couple bucks each time.” 20
- “Stayed at the Wyndham 4 times since 2019. Nice rooms!” 14
- “The Borgata just celebrated its fifteenth year anniversary, but their rooms remain fresh and clean and we can certainly say they have the best customer service in all of Atlantic City.” 19
- “Additionally, the customer service representatives on the phone and some in the casino just are not as polished as the Borgata.” 19
- “I stay at Ocean with kids multiple times a year and we really enjoy it. It's clean (with rare exceptions), staff are friendly, it's huge, and there's a lot to do.” 10
- “Online check-in is a joke and absolutely useless.” 19
- “Staying at Harrah's will cost more for rooms, there are not a lot of restaurant choices, I don't know if they have a pool for the kids.” 14
- “Bally's does not try to pretend to be something it is not. It is routinely the most cost conscious of the three Total Rewards properties in Atlantic City so you won't have to break the bank for a weekend night stay.” 19
- “It is the luck of the draw. There are some paid shills here who will try to get to you to pay 300-400 a night for Ocean when it isn't worth it, and you still could end up in one of those bad rooms.” 10
- “All casino hotels will smell like cigs and be expensive . Oceans is really nice but expensive.” 10
- “harrahs is going to be way cheaper than borgata, IMO borgata is not worth the extra $$$ the rooms at harrahs are fine” 14
- “I agree with your assessment of Harrah's, limited food choices and expensive.” 10
- “I stayed there one time because of a great deal and I will never, ever stay there again because of those fucking elevators.” 20
- “Recently, Harrah's has begun revamping their Bayfront and Marina tower rooms, and generally they have fairly priced rooms, though occasionally they can be a bit expensive.” 19
- “So, the adult pool area at Ocean Casino Resort has changed. It used to be we go there and then pay for your chair, which included the minimum spend of any drinks and food you would like to throughout the day. Now, let me run yesterday. They said that you have to pay a fixed price for the chair, which doesn't come with anything.” On camera13:11
- “Oceans is really nice but expensive.” 10
- “Total Rewards charges the highest resort fees in all of Atlantic City, topping $30 per night when including tax, but at Caesars that pretty much gets you nothing, WiFi and a $5 discount on $15 parking, which is also more than other hotels charge (unless you have status).” 19
- “Ocean seems very expensive for a winter weekend....and Hard Rock almost 1k” 14
- “My husband and I stay at the Tropicana, just got back a couple weeks ago, going back in July and August, stayed in executive corner room ocean view room loved it!!” 10
- “I agree Hard Rock is horrible. I stayed two nights two weeks ago. Stains on bath towels, sheets, carpet, & window sill.” 16
- “The rooms themselves received very little love before re-opening, and while the bathrooms are nice and up to Hyatt standards, the rest of the room needs some more updating.” 19
- “The hotel features spacious rooms with modern furnishings, refrigerators, in-room safes, and entertainment options for a relaxing stay.” On camera35:09
- “I like the flexibility of having a full kitchen and the bigger space compared to a small hotel room.” 20
- “From the hotel's location, you can just walk your way into the best restaurants, casinos, and amusement centers in the city with so much ease and enjoyment.” 8
- “I don't care for the location of the Borgata, I stayed once and it's a fine hotel but in a really inconvenient spot I'd spend $200 on Uber.” 16

- “The lovely hotel has a prime location 1.2 miles from the themed enclosed shopping mall "Quarter at Tropicana".” 6
- “days inn is by the Tropicana. It's really close to the beach too.” 16
- “I think a days inn is by the Tropicana. It's really close to the beach too.” 16
- “Ocean also has a ton of other activities to do for the entire family, including the largest Topgolf suite in the entire northeast. And it's got a great location at the end of the boardwalk on the beach.” On camera12:53
- “Hard Rock has a great location on the boardwalk, right next to the Pier providing non-gambling entertainment during the spring, summer and fall.” 19
- “In the Chelsea area steps from the boardwalk and Atlantic City beach. It is close to Tropicana Casino and Boardwalk Hall, making it a convenient base for exploring the city.” On camera39:04
- “Caesars also has a convenient location on the boardwalk and includes beach access and connected to Bally's Atlantic City.” 19
- “One of the nagging issues is the slow elevators, especially around 10 am on check out day. Pro tip: if you're on a lower floor, take an elevator up to go back down or you will have to wait several cycles to get an empty elevator car.” 20
