Borgata AC

[doris13]

every casino charges for parking if you don't have a premium card olds. do yourself a favor,stay out of AC in the summer,it gets too crowded and hot as hell.when i was still going, after the middle of june i would stay away until september.the boardwalk isn't as safe as it use to be either,we always heard stay off the boardwalk once it gets dark.

Given your exalted status, Resorts would probably even waive the onerous $38 daily fees I pay. Great views, amazing pool. Forget cable. No premium channels. HL players are quite obnoxious. It’s not your MS crowd.

Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately, nowhere is as safe as it used to be.

One more reason I miss the drive down to A/C. I used to love to hot foot it out of the many Garden State tolls without cutting anyone off, tailgating, or any Bizarro behavior. One time long before Borgata was built on our way to Harrah’s Marina, a state trooper chased me down for a hot footing it out of the toll. I guess he could see that other than flying out of the tollbooth. I didn’t do anything crazy and backed off on the gas about a half mile down the road. At any rate, I was very lucky at the time I had my olds 442 which was extremely fast and since it was a 1965, it was already a classic and all original. He gave me a lecture well-deserved and let me go without a ticket!!!! Can’t say that I never hotfoot it again out of the garden, state tolls, but at least on that trip down and back I didn’t. I think it was in the early or mid 1980s. We liked Marina a lot and usually took the boat ride while we were there. I can’t remember ever staying over at Harrah’s. Budgets were tight and we were in our 30s. if I remember our bankroll was less than 300 bucks. I can only remember going to The Sands, Harrahs Marina, playboy, Resorts, and Caesars. 6 trips a year would have been the most. This summer I think we will just take a trip down there even if we don’t patronize the smoky casinos much, we liked the boardwalk, fresh air and other venues here and there I would like to check out Borgata anyway, I could stay on the house at resorts world due to my status at Mohegan Sun I think. Does Borgata charge for parking?

Borgata parking fee $5.00 ( all the time). If you ae a Gold Tier status free parking.

I have not heard as many conflicting stories about a property as I have about Borgata. It seems people either sing it's praises, or think it is a travesty. No middle ground here. It has been a long time since I was in AC, perhaps I need to see for myself. I previously asked a general question about Borgata Poker room, but apparently no one here plays real live poker at all. Which is understandable since Borgata's poker room probably is the same as the rest, either great or lousy, no in between.

I've heard good things about the room. And it's quite busy, so nobody is really voting with their feet.

5 bucks I can handle. Thanks. I will see if the Mrs wants to head down in the Spring. Would probably stay at Resorts ( free ) and check out Borgata. Probably a good idea to travel or leave about 3 AM and beat the traffic. 4 hour trip without traffic. Would probably have a little free play at Resorts/Mohegan and would check the pay tables anyway.

The Borgata is replacing the carpet in the casino. I think it is the original carpet.
They just section off the area by the Amphora Lounge to be replaced.

Thanks JIM, are the old video poker machines in the area I believe you call the “Ghetto” back up and running?
