My "view of the bay" room on the 3rd floor showed nothing but the parking lot. The restaurant inside is convenient but not very good and is pricey for what you get. There are two small elevators to service the entire hotel, which is inconvenient. The main lobby is only accessible by stairs; for a luggage cart you need to go around the back of the hotel, near the dumpster, to find the lower lobby (which is just a back entrance). The beach chair and umbrella included with your stay is a coupon for a free rental from Bert's which is on the beach - they're only open till 5p and can be difficult to locate. Overall an OK stay, convenient location but not glamorous.

For starters we are still checked-in and still have one more night stay... (pray for us). However,…read moreif you want to stay here be prepared to be nicked and dimed to death! First, customers service was incredibly slow. The "use the QR code to check-in" method which after putting my name and info in told me to "continue to the front desk for check-in" what's the point of the QR if you still have to go to the desk. What a waste of time! Second, we reserved a King bed room. The concierge said our reservation was for an "as available" so they tried to put us into a 2 queen room. Had to pull up my reservation on the email to prove to her that's what we booked. Thanks for being difficult Doris. Third, be sure to have all of your toiletries! We forgot toothpaste and went to ask concierge if they had a travel size like some hotels/resorts provide for free. Nope, was told we had to buy it at the store. $3.75 for the travel size tooth paste. Great. Thanks. Fourth, we do not drink and just wanted a couple bottles of water. $5 for Dasani at the gift shop and $3.75 for a 12oz can in the vending machine. Wild prices. Cheaper at a pro football game. Finally... and I can't stress this enough. Why the hell do I have to pay to use a luggage cart? If you want to have a white glove style resort maybe provide freaking toothpaste and have a clean check-in service. Trying to charge us to use a luggage cart or force us to use bell service is crazy. I can see why Atlantic City has died. Good riddance to this kind of junk. Absolutely worthless. Customer service and good business practices are dead!

I like to post reviews in the hope the management sees it and takes action…read more I booked this hotel based on the very positive reviews I read online. We are 2 adults that stayed for 2 nights. Positives: very clean room, lots of clean, white & fluffy towels, shampoo/conditioner and small bar of shower soap was given, small fridge and small microwave were helpful, designated parking spot in front of the room door, easy check in, easy check out and nice little snacks every morning were available with assorted teas and Keurig coffee machine. The strip mall with Shop Rite and assorted restaurants were just down the road about 2 minutes drive. Things that would make it better and would make me come again: #1 a new mattress. My bed felt lumpy and if I sat on it, the other end of the mattress would bounce up. It was like a water bed or something like that. I couldn't sleep. #2 Please put light blocking curtains or shades. The morning sun shines right into the room and that was really annoying, having full sunlight coming into the room with no way to block any of it. #3 The air conditioner worked but it was extremely LOUD. At night I turned it off in an effort to sleep in a quiet atmosphere, but then it got hot and there was no fan so I had to turn the really loud AC back on. #4 This room had 2 beds in it. But only 1 chair. Please - put 2 chairs in the room. #5 Bedsheets are too small for the size and thickness of the mattress Overall, it was very clean and convenient, but due to the uncomfortable bed and full sun into my face, I cannot book this again.

Bally's Atlantic City -- Good Blackjack, Bad Parking, Elevator Tried to Kill Me…read moreVisited: Friday, July 31, 2026 -- roughly 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. 3/5 Bally's Atlantic City still feels like a classic gambler's casino, and I mean that as a compliment. Not a nightclub disguised as a casino. Not a luxury lifestyle palace where blackjack has been reduced to four tables next to an aromatherapy lounge. Bally's feels like a place built for people who actually came to gamble, drink and periodically question their financial judgment. The blackjack was the highlight. I found $15 tables with standard 3:2 blackjack payouts, which instantly earned my respect. No surrender, but otherwise a perfectly playable game. Better yet, most of the players actually knew what they were doing. No donk-fest. No splitting tens because Grandma appeared in a dream. No hitting a 14 against a dealer 6 because "the vibes said so." The East Coast table energy was excellent--talking, laughing, ball-busting, collective groaning and the occasional spiritual crisis when the dealer somehow manufactures a 21 out of six cards. Two dealers stood out: Russell, originally from D.C., and Stephen, a local New Jersey guy. Both were entertaining, personable and ran a good table. Good pace, good banter, no nonsense. The craps table was also fun, except apparently the dice had joined organized crime. Nobody got much of a deep run going, including yours truly. I controlled the dice twice and produced two legendary performances: Roll. Seven-out. Twice. That is not craps. That is basically a direct deposit into Bally's operating account. Upstairs there's also a cool rotating bar overlooking the casino floor, and I had a very good gin and tonic there while reflecting on my relationship with probability and poor decision-making. Now for the deductions. First: $20 parking. Twenty bucks to park so I can go inside and voluntarily hand you MORE money? That sucks. Second, and much more importantly, the elevator on the way out nearly turned my foot into an orthopedic case study. I was wearing flip-flops and stepping into the elevator behind a family that had just arrived. My right foot moved forward and, at literally the last second, the elevator suddenly jerked upward what felt like about six inches. My toe slammed into the raised edge, I tripped, and momentum plus gravity sent me forward in a full-body swan dive directly onto the poor woman standing in front of me. There was no dignity left. None. One second I'm leaving Bally's. The next I'm basically performing an involuntary Olympic diving routine into an unsuspecting tourist. Thankfully it ended up being more comical than catastrophic, and nobody appeared seriously hurt. But that elevator movement was absolutely concerning. If a lift can shift noticeably while people are boarding, that is something management needs to inspect immediately. Because today it's my toe and an embarrassing midair embrace with a stranger. Tomorrow, if something mechanical goes seriously wrong, it could be a legitimate safety and liability issue. So Bally's gets 3 stars. The gambling itself? I liked it. Good blackjack rules, competent players, fun dealers, energetic atmosphere, decent craps action and a cool rotating bar. The $20 parking irritated me. The elevator attempting to convert me into human origami cost them another star. Come for the 3:2 blackjack. Stay for the East Coast gambling energy. And apparently watch your damn feet when entering the elevator.

9/13 Bed bugs…read more.. My sister-in-law and I needed to take care of business in Atlantic City and we decided to stay at Bally's. To our surprise the room had bed bugs. The following morning my sister-in-law had an emergency meeting she needed to attend so she left me the responsibility of reporting the incident. Initially, I called the front desk to report the incident, they told me that I needed to file a report. No problem, I go to the front desk upon my departure, I tell the attendant my concern, she reports that SECURITY needs to take my information to start the filing/complaint process. Cool, no problem, strange...but no problem. As I'm waiting for security, a manager, I believe, walks to me and asks can he help me. I explain my concern, he reports that filing an incident report was the correct thing to do. He reported something about reimbursing me but seemingly his concern about the bed bug seemed minimized. At this point, a security person walks over and I explained to her my concern. She takes a picture of my sister-in-law's Bally's card, takes a picture of my license and states that my sister-in-law should file a report as well. I leave the hotel, contact my sister-in-law, tell her what she needed to do and leave the rest to her. The following day she attempts to contact Bally's as a follow up and they tell her, the Bally's rewards member, that there's nothing that she needs to do. So what's the resolution...none to this point. My resolution is that it will be a cold day in hell before I step foot back into their hotel/casino. But if you decide to do so...check the linen before you go to sleep.

Pros: - The location of the Inn is wonderful with a less than 2 minute walk to the beach and boardwalk. - The Inn provided us with parking and beach tags. - The Inn and rooms are very well maintained and clean. - We had our own private bath, TV, and refrigerator. - Restaurants are located within a 5-15 minute walk depending on what you feel like eating. - On the day of checkout, we were allowed to keep our parking spots and beach badges for the duration of the day until we left. And there are even outside showers, you could use to clean up before sadly bidding adieu to Ocean City. Cons: - For the small room we had, the rate we paid seemed steep. But given that it is peak tourist season, it seemed to be the going rate at the other smaller motels in the area as well. - They accept check or cash only and a 50% deposit by check prior to arrival. - It's been a long time since I wrote out a check for anything, but I gladly obliged and mailed the check. Unfortunately, I made the check out to "Osborne's Inn" (which would be the obvious choice) and once we arrived, I was told the check needed to be made out to Peggy Ann Osborne. I found it strange they could not cash a check made out to the Inn. In any rate, we had to hunt down a bank and withdraw the funds to cover the deposit.
