Bally's Review

I'm not sure why, but Bally's never really appealed to me... location is great for sure, but maybe I'm just a sucker for newer hotels..

what?????? where r these pics??? I dont remember that. I think I remember a foot massage, and rescuing my hat, but thats it.

I am relatively sure it was Julia's camera...that was a funny scene. We tried for like 5 mins to get you to take our pic, finally someone else had to do it.

$350 for round trip airfare from Chicago + 3 nights at Bally's is the only thing that appealed to me. Perfect location and a bed to sleep in.

I tried $100 at PH, but it was a no go for a suite. They said that was the only upgrade from the room I had. They offered a view, but I declined. Turned out Irock wanted a view. So I called back down to the front desk, told them my roommate had the gheys and wanted a view. When we went to get our keys, irock spent the whole time trying to convince the clerk he wasnt really ghey. LOL that was some funny shit.

That is fukin awesome!!!

Ballys (and just Harrah's Rewards Card in general) is good about giving away comped rooms. As long as you play a little bit in their casinos, you get 2 free nights stay (this deal comes around almost every month!)

I reserved 2 free night stay at Ballys South Tower standard room. About 2 weeks before my scheduled stay, I received an email offering an promotional upgrade to the North Tower Deluxe room (The north tower's standard room) for $10 extra per night.
After researching and seeing the difference between the North Tower and South Tower rooms, I decided to go for the upgrade.

The North Tower deluxe room was well worth the $20plus tax I paid for 2 nights:
The room itself is spacious. There's a king sized bed, entertainment center that doubles as a drawer for clothing, a couch & coffee table, a desk with lamp, and a small vanity/make-up area. All this without being too cluttered or feeling crowded.
The bathroom is pretty standard. There's the standard 2in1 bathtub/shower, sink, and toilet. The vanity area by the sink is normal sized (not tiny nor huge). There is a swivel magnifying mirror (for girls wanting to look at their face in 20X) attached to the wall so that's was a plus for my gf.

Room comes with iron+ironing board and hairdryer.
The in-room safe and internet access has a daily fee.
The coupons they give you when you check-in are not that great.

Overall this was a great deal. Maybe not the most luxurious hotel, nor the most party-atmosphere (when my gf & I got dressed up to go clubbing we felt like we were being ogled by everyone in the lobby), but you can't complain about something that's free.
