What can I say about comped rooms? They're awesome! But let's talk for a second about our comped room here at bally's...well, not so great.
We were given a hotel room in the South Tower, the non-remodeled side of the hotel...which is no biggie...but it is an issue when you are placed right next to the elevator...and I mean RIGHT next to the elevator. I barely got any sleep the first night...all I could hear was the rumbling of the elevator shafts. And as well all know...Vegas never sleeps...because the hotel doesn't let you! Haha.
I called downstairs asking for a different hotel room...they couldn't offer anything else but they did offer to set us up in a different room on the same floor the next day. I asked if we could be moved to the north tower...NOPE! $20/day and sure we could...so we did. Argh.
There is a pretty huge difference between the rooms. If you do stay here, make sure you book the NORTH TOWER. They have flat screen TVs, 2 desks, comfy beds, a less awkward bathroom with granite counters, a better sink, and lots of mirrors.
One thing in common between the 2 different rooms? The noise. I could hear everyone's conversations from other rooms around me...I could hear my neighbors flushing their toilets. At least, no elevator noise. Thank goodness.
The staff are friendly for the most part...I had a great conversation with one of the guys at the bell desk. The slots didn't give up a penny...but it's Vegas! You're here to make a deposit at the slot machines anyhoo. Haha.
Oh, and I think it's ridiculous to charge your guests $22 to use the gym.
2 stars.
