We stayed in the Havana Tower which could use some updating. However the room was clean and the bed was super comfy! We had a great view of the water and so close to the boardwalk! We were also close to outlets and CVS. We also ate at a great luncheonette for breakfast called Marie's Luncheonettes! We were very pleased with our stay at Tropicana and would def stay again!

Tropicana is a really nice casino, especially the decor of the French quarter, but that is not enough reason for us to return to the hotel. First of all, we arrived at the resort around 8:50-9pm. Thankfully we decided to leave our bags in the car until we checked in because it took us over 2 hours to get checked in! We had booked our rooms online 2 weeks prior and had all of our confirmation info with us. The only downfall was that my boyfriend and I had booked the room for just the two of us. We were traveling with a group of friends though. Well, 4 of our friends had booked a room together and last minute, the guy who had booked their room bailed. They had no where to stay, and already gave the guy money for their room. So we told them they could crash in our room. So we proceeding to check in, the hotel gave us two double beds, which worked out for our purposes even though we had requested a king bed. Then they asked if two keys would be enough, since there was 5 of us now staying in the room we asked to have 4 keys, we didn't want to be over eager. They said sure, then all of a sudden since we were staying 2 nights, our total jumped $100.00! For each extra person in the room, it was $25.00 per night per person. We hadn't even told them a 5th person was going to be in the room. At that point we decided to cancel our room for the second night and find a place in the morning, the man at the desk asked why we had to cancel, my response was "seriously?" He had to give a legitimate reason for them to give us our money back, my boyfriend looked at him and said, "I just got off the phone, there was a family emergency". The guy accepted that answer, but whatever. During our check in process my best friend, who was going to be staying in the other room, but now with us, was talking to a guy from our group who had already checked in. He was telling her that before getting on the elevator at each of the towers to the hotel, there were casino security guards making sure that every single person had a key to the hotel. Where does this ever happen?! We've stayed at Caesars, Ballys, Harrahs and Resorts and that has never happened. Fortunately, 4 of the guys in our group had booked a room for 4, and received 4 keys but one of them couldn't make it so my best friend used their key to get into our tower and then the 5 of us stayed in our room. The part that gets me is they gave us a room that sleeps 4 people, so why charge is extra if your going to give us a room for that many people. We even requested a king, so maybe I could understand if we were given a king and asked to change it then charge us, but that's not what happened. And they won't allow more than 4 people in a room. So in the morning we checked out, called Ballys, had a room that 5 people were allowed to sleep in, were given 5 keys at no extra charge and upgraded to an ocean view room.

I had a great time at the Tropicana. Were the rooms luxurious? No. Did I pay for luxury? No. For what I paid, it was a great time. The hotel/ Casino is large and offers restaurants, bars, Imax, free live entertainment and a huge casino. The hotel is on the boardwalk, which is very nice with all kinds of shopping: bargains, upscale, anything you want. People are very friendly, and nobody bothers you. There are sidewalk cafes, and the beach is fairly clean and even swimmable in the summer. If what you are looking for is a perfectly decorated room with a flatscreen tv (you really come to AC to watch tv?), then stay elsewhere and pay more. If you're looking for a convenient, fun place to stay that is clean and comfortable and a good value, Tropicana fits the bill.I stayed in the north tower 10th Floor RM 1011,Paid $78.00 with tax and had a ocean view room, The employees were all very nice. We ate breakfast At the Country Kitchen which was OUTSTANDING and Affordable there located right outside on the boardwalk from Tropicana.I did find that the restaurants including the buffet @ Tropicana were Expensive $30.00pp for dinner??? You also need to dress comfortable.. ALOT of walking the boardwalk gives you a complete workout when your off to all other casinos... The food on the Boardwalk is more affordable and at other casinos.. As far as slot playing... NO Winnings...but had a blast.. We will defiantly stay here again..But play at other casinos and hope for better luck..Oh last thing when you sign up for card make sure you use it.. We didn't have to pay for any parking when we left. It was our first visit there and was told we will be getting offers for better stays and vacation packages.. Cant wait for those!! Excited to go back!!! Tropicana is the Best Location on the boardwalk to stay @ close to EVERYTHING!!!

Big resort with casino inside, interesting place ,our room was on the 53th floor and I can't sleep because the wind all night. I don't like hotel with so many floors. Rooms are large with two queen beds.
