I wanted to stay overnight for the Air Show there were 600,000 people in AC, so I knew we would have to pay top dollar to stay anywhere. All the Casinos were booked and all the board walk properties were also booked with the exception of the 2 star Days Inn which wanted $280 per night. I decided to go for the best western $129 even though I had read some questionable reviews. We were suprised at how nice the hotel looked. It was clean nice tiled bathroom new looking carpet on hall floors and in the room. The AC in our room worked fine and was on when we got there. There was a nice sized frige, coffee machine and blow dryer. The halls were warm because windows were open (no AC on). We had a great complimentary breakfast in the morning including fresh make your own belgium waffels, bagles, pastries, muffins & juices and coffee. Staff was friendly and helpful. Being a city girl I was definately on my guard walking the one long block from the boardwalk at night 1AM but it was well lit and had several clubs and resturants along the way. It is also centrally located to all the Casinos and the beach has a boardwalk entryway with a rinse off shower and public bathrooms.

Made plans to go to Atlantic City at the last possible minute (made reservation Thursday for a Saturday night stay). The Best Western not only had the best rate of any of the Atlantic City hotels, it was about 50% cheaper than the next cheapest. The room was simple but clean and just fine for our stay. We only really slept in the room and I had a good solid night sleep so no complaints there. Good location, short and safe walk to the Boardwalk.

I won't recommend this hotel to anybody .... First of all for the same price you can stay in a much better place in Atlantic city, just make sure to do the right search before you booked..... this Hotel is located in a very getto area of Atlantic City, it doesn't look safe at all.....
This is what really bothers me the must of this place, this is my experience that really upset me in a way that I don;t want anybody to have the same bad experience!!!!
As soon as I got to the room you are expecting to feel comfortable especially driving long hours that all you want is to have some rest, here is what happened, the rug smells dirty...The room was very hot and when I checked the Air conditioner was supposed to be on already but all that was coming out was warm air.....I called the reception TO COMPLAINT and this is the answer I got:
SORRY THE WHOLE BUILDING IS LIKE THAT , YOU CAN OPEN THE WINDOWS IS GOING TO BE A LITTLE CHILLY TONIGHT!!!!
THE AC IS NOT WORKING.....WHAT KIND OF ANSWER IS THAT FOR A CUSTOMER?, I WILL SAY THEY SHOULD CLOSED DOWN UNTIL THAT GETS FIX OR AT LEAST HAVE THE COURTESY TO TELL THE PEOPLE THAT THE AC IS NOT WORKING...
As soon as I had that answer I spent like half hour making all the calls to move to a better hotel....after driving 2 1/2 from NYC I don't think nobody deserves that....
Stay away from this Hotel is awful.....won't recommended...

We stayed one nite at this hotel in March 2006, for the money, it was just fine. The room was clean, the front desk people were very nice. The only part we did NOT like was parking in the "back" parking lot, but the "front" lot was full. The hotel is one block off the ocean - other than some noisy young kids across the hall (18 year olds?) we would stay again.
