Although I am only about 3 hours from the Detroit and Niagara Falls casinos, I feel the 470 mile trek to Atlantic City is worth it due to Resorts. I have stayed in the Ocean Tower rooms only, but I can not find any fault with the rooms in this older part of the hotel. In both the King Bed and 2 Double Bed rooms, there is ample space to move, and the bathrooms are well appointed. As one other reviewer noted, the bathrooms are somewhat plain and certainly not huge; but, does anyone go to a casino hotel to stay in the bathroom all day? The casino itself has some very friendly dealers and slot attendants, and the minimums (by Atlantic City standards) are well within reach for most people. Blackjack and craps minimums are usually $10, and roulette (double 0 wheel only) can be found for $5 most times. As a plus, the layout of the casino is simple and straightforward. Both Breadsticks and the Beachcomber have good food, though I think the former offers more variety and is better; the longer lines outside Breadsticks during busy times seem to support this. The only drawback I can find with Resorts is the poor planning that forces arriving guests to have to go through the casino -- luggage, bags, and all-- to check in for rooms. But this is really a minor complaint that is easily forgotten once a party has reached its room. All in all, Resorts is a fine casino hotel, and prospective guests should not be scared off by its age. After all, this Ohio guy thinks the trip is sure worth it!
