It Was Fun While It Lasted!

Probably my last visit to Showboat. First, their multi-level parking garage 'went digital'. Now, their outside lot 'went digital'. I will NEVER own a 'smart'phone! The only way to park there now is to use the valet service. And they won't take your car until you've checked in, let alone try to find a valet worker when needed. That, plus they now charge you an extra $3 to play games at the arcade. My vacation days are like GOLD to me. I would go to A.C. early in the morning and go for a bike ride on the boardwalk. After lunch, would park at The Showboat outside lot (WAS VERY convenient!), maybe get a drink and probably play some games at the arcade and check in a little later. Like my title says "It was fun while it lasted!"

Property is quite old and is trying to make a comeback. Much of the interior is in fair condition as were the rooms. Basic things like the hair dryer was broken etc. However, the rooms were priced appropriately for the conditions at the location.

No show boat

The room itself was clean and comfortable. Beside the room, thats about all you get. Main areas are filthy, carpets stained, escalators all broken, elevators sticky if they even worked, most the arcade games are broken down in some way. Our hallway stunk of nasty dirty diapers. The same trash was left outside of the rooms the entire time. No valet ssrvice. No bell cart. We had to make 4 trips into our room to get all settled in. When we asked why we couldn't have a bell cart they said because valet locks them up. It was only 630 pm, and there was no valet the entire stay anyhow. Self park is very easy, but be prepared for the 25$ a night fee. None of the restaurants were open, and whatever market/buffet they advertise on floor 2 is also a farce. Its all abandoned and empty. Advertised as dog friendly, but you have to walk your pet through most of the property to a teeny tiny patch of grass to let them out. If youre looking for a cheap moderately clean place to rest your head at night, this is the place for you. But keep in mind there are NO AMMENITIES OR EXTRAS whatsoever. You are to fend for yourself. And also note that this is no longer a casino. It has been turmed into a giant arcade. And yes, unsupervised children are running amock everywhere. Front desk and arcade bartenders were amazing. They're about the only thing keeping this place afloat, as well as the arcade if they actually attend to the broken games. Good luck.

The property was very old. The room has stains on all the furniture throughout the carpet. The doors look like somebody kicked it in a couple of times and he tried to repair it. The elevators was always full had to take the steps or the escalator from the 16th floor Housekeeping was horrible. They don’t get in until 9:30 in the morning and they made you come down to get towels and washcloth from the front desk. This property should be closed down.
