Stayed at this hotel for the first time and as an interior design enthusiast, I said to our lass "I bet Ray Hanna was involved in the decor" While talking to the manager I was delighted that Ray and many other renowned decorators were involved, Robs Lamplough etc.
Thoroughly good hotel, great service and excellent colour schemes.

We stayed at Bally's over the 4th of July weekend.

Check-in on the 3rd was a breeze (arrived at the hotel at 10 am, the room was ready).

It is nice to stay in a large, clean room (deluxe king in the North tower).

The pool scene was really fun. Not pretentious at all, just a lot of people having a good time.

My wife loved the Spa as well.

Great stay overall, we will return.

2 small things- clean those nasty windows and don't charge $3 per day to use the safe.

What can I say about this hotel except wow, massive rooms. When I say massive, my room was probably as big as my first flat, huge. The bed was designed to sleep an entire football squad (American or European, take your pick!), and is big enough for me at 6' 4" to lay in any direction and still be on the mattress.

Decor is a little dated, but the sheer space makes up for that. The room is all open plan, with the bath and bathroom all being on a slight mezzanine. The Bath looks out into the room, with the toilet and bidet is a separate little rooms either side of the shower. The room also features two basins and two large wardrobes.

My only three complaints about the room are: -

1) Cleaning is not done to a high standard
2) The shower has the strength of a wet dog shaking excess water onto you
3) No wireless Internet and only a tiny Ethernet lead

Apart from that, the room is comfortable, if a little loud (air con is quite noisy as is the bathroom fan) and comfortably furnished. No issues were experienced with check-in or checkout and a problem with one of the booked rooms (water leak) was handled very well by staff.

Ballys was out of the room requested, so we had to pay to upgrade our room to get a king bed. They charged us an additional $25/night. We also had to pay $3/day to use the room safe. We also had to pay $4.50 for an extra drinking glass: $2 for each glass plus $2.50 for "room service." Internet was an additional approx $15/day.

The sheets had holes and were frayed. The washclothes and towels were also frayed and had holes in them. The staff was unfriendly from our check in to check out. Bally's claims to be a 4 star hotel. It is certainly not. We have had nicer experiences at Motel 6. OK for a group of crazy college boys looking to stay cheap and no frills or atmosphere.
