The hotel is clean. The beds were comfortable. Downside. When i checked in went through the whole check in process, the girl gave me my keys and said .."look at the map and find your room". What is that? It wasnt that hard to say, your room is in building two on the first floor.
Besides that all was good. It wasnt too far from the casino but far enough to get away from the hustle and bustle of the casino traffic.

2nd APril we have stayed at this hotel as part of a 15 room golf excursion. The stay at at the hotel for all 32 members of your golf group was enjoyeable in april 2007, so we stayed again for our annual golf trip again this year in the atlantic city area and at the Ramada West Atlantic city. As last year, all of our rooms were clean & comfortable. the service for the full 3 days stay was great. and the breakfast is one of the better I have had for a contintental "free" breakfast. Next year we may choose myrtle beach, SC for our golf outing for a change, but we will definately be back to the same hotel in 2010.

We were given a "handicapped" room on the 3rd floor. There was no walk in shower as promised. It's hard to step in a bathtub from a wheelchair. I asked the management if they had a room with a walk in shower. They transferred us to a room on the first floor. I went to the 3rd floor with my son to start moving our things. The elevator doors would not open. We rang the bell and yelled for help, no response. It went to the 2nd floor. The doors would still not open. The doors opened on the first floor, We saw a man come in and told him that the elevator did not work, take the other one. He said "We know". Turns out he was the maintenance man. An "Out of order" sign would have been nice. They never put one up. We moved our things to the room, which was occupied by the maintenance man eating his lunch. He couldn't understand why we were given "his lunch room" The room had the same bathroom as the one on the 3rd floor, a tub with handles, no walk in shower. The hotel has no truly handicapped rooms. Hotwire got us this hotel for $55 night. We saved a whopping $4 per night from Ramada's rate. I'm originally from Atlantic City and turned down the offer to stay with relatives. Not the next time!

My wife and I stayed at this hotel since we couldn't get a comp room on a Saturday night at one of the casinos in town. I thought the rate was poorly represented as a leading hotel review website said the rate was lower than it really turned out to be ($102 vs. $59).

The positives:

1. The continental breakfast was good-- free and good for a light breakfast.

2. The property was definitely showing its age, even in the building with interior corridors, but the room was clean and comfortable.

3. Check-out was quick and efficient.

4. The hotel IS close to the casinos--Tropicana and the Hilton are 4 miles away.

The negatives:

1. We checked in around 12:30pm. The room we were given was on the 5th floor--wasn't even close to clean or ready. Went back to the front desk--given a room on the 4th floor--That one wasn't ready or cleaned yet either! Finally went back a 3rd time and insisted the room be verified first as cleaned and available before we accepted it. It was, but the front desk staff seemed to act as if I was a bother and drag on their time even when I told them the first two floors we were assigned to had multiple rooms open and still being cleaned. They didn't bother to listen and almost gave us another room that hadn't been cleaned!

#1 complaint with this hotel:

The staff and their lack of attention to details (like the obvious ones pointed out by their guests!). Not to mention their lack of common courtesy (like treating their guests like guests).

The room wasn't worth the $102 we paid for it (rate and taxes), but considering the cost of other hotels closer to downtown, not too bad for one night.
