Property is very outdated… lots of activities for kids but com prepared to pay big if your kids wanna use the waterpark, or the racetrack etc. You also have to pay to park $25 a night even though you’ve already paid to stay there.

I had to complain about noise coming from another room multiple times to the front desk clerk Larry and he totally ignored my complaints. I asked for a room change and he also ignored it. Security had to come up and it wasn’t until a fight nearly broke out that my room was finally changed. This man is rude and should not be working the front desk at all. I’ve stayed in this hotel several times and never had such a terrible experience with a staff member

Horrible stay
During my stay at the showboat, the tub started backing up and once we called to have them fix the issue maintenance pulled dog hair and human hair from the drain and plopped it into the toilet and NEVER cleaned up the tub afterwards. Room service never came for our 2 night stay and it just was terrible. They serviced every other room but ours and no the tag wasn’t on the door for DND.

This hotel is dirty. I have stayed here for years because it is the only hotel on the boardwalk that allows pets. If you allow pets shouldn’t you expect to put extra effort into cleaning the rooms and common areas? They don’t. The rugs in hallways and rooms are filthy. The rooms are not cleaned properly. There was debris on the floor when we checked in. There was a crack in the sink basin. The furniture in the room is ancient and in par with a motel. The elevators are slow and only some of them run. The property is run down. It has recently added all kind of kids arcade games and water park but nothing for adults… 2 bars and 2or 3 restaurants are sketchy. It has invested in a lot of areas of the property and neglected the things that are important. Do not stay here unless you have pets and can ignore the disgusting rooms and hallways. They should be ashamed of themselves for charging rates that are on par with other REAL hotels on the boardwalk. OH, and they charge an additional RESORT fee when you check in which was about $50. This resort is like Hades

Now I understand what people are saying. I first stayed in an ocean front room balcony suite and thought it was fabulous. I reserved a room for my son (based on my experience) and he was not treated the same. I reserved an ocean view for him which he did not get. The room smelled stale probably smoking. The front staff was rude to him and I am not sure why... I now will never stay at this property again.. I will also be contacting expedia and the property to figure out what happened with my room selection as I did pay extra..

Limited water slides and activities, hotel not updated nor the cleanest, no options for food or even a cup of tea past a certain hour. Takes several calls and long wait times to get staff to service your room Would not recommend. Kalahari and American Dream are better water park options.
