Hotels near Firefighters Museum Of Southern N.j., Galloway

We booked in this hotel July 22, 2022 for an overnight stay with four couple who are very good friends. From check in to check out the service was great. We asked for more towels and it was very soon delivered. The rooms were clean, a/c was cold, shower was strong, breakfast was very good with good selection of food ( never ran out of eggs or sausages, cereal etc., the person in charge was always on the look out for food that was running low and immediately filled it up. My kudos to Mar ( Magellan as she was so courteous, personable, friendly and very service oriented woman. Every time I asked her for a simple question no matter what she was doing she’d answer me in a friendly manner. I would book here again if I were to return to AC.

My stay (July 3rd through July 5th) was a restful and relaxing experience. My room was very clean and comfortable. My room passed my white glove test which is very, very rare post Covid when so many hotels are cutting corners. The bed, the pillows, the shower head and water pressure were excellent. The staff were very friendly and professional. The checking in and out process was very easy. The hotel is modern and clean. It was a fully booked hotel yet very quiet. The pantry area was well stocked and maintained. We slept in and needed more towels amongst other things and there were no issues with getting the necessary items. With only a short 15 minute drive to AC, this is a great spot to be close by but still away from all of the noise and crowds. I wound definitely recommend and return.

My wife and I researched most of the hotels in the area finally deciding on the Borgato. The visit started off by trying to valet my car at the Water Club; was told that because my car was a Tesla I should go to the other side. Cool, no problem. Check in was simple, used the app. Stopped at the desk anyway, asked about getting a suite for the weekend. The person called her supervisor who directed her to tell us that our visit was too long. My guess is that charging me $50 more for three nights wasn’t enough money when compared to what they could charge someone for one night. Whatever, I should’ve booked a suite in the first place. They were able to “upgrade” the room - but the hotel didn’t seem too busy so it I’m sure it wasn’t too big of an issue. The food selection was okay, the first night we ate at the food court which was hidden. Average cheesesteak, nothing to write home about. The next morning we are at Bread and Butter. We stood at the line entrance and weren’t greeted, so we moved to the other end where three associates were conversing. Two of which retreated to the back and the third moved to were originally stood.I ordered French Toast, it was okay. Clearly microwaved, which I wouldn’t have expected. My wife ordered egg sandwich that was also frozen and served on a burnt bagel. The tables were crowded and limited. The dealers had no personality, rarely interacted with the guests. A moved an empty bottle to the side of one of the tables - a pit boss asked if why I couldn’t put it in the garbage. That night we ate a Oldholme Stead Steakhouse. The only special was an A5 Waygu Steak, I was told it was the best steak they had. The steak had no sear and not cooked to my liking; I ate it because I had a hard time sending back a $200 steak. Again, we were met with service that was inattentive.We returned to the tables but due to the lack of additional staff to accommodate, the few extra tables were slammed. I waited on the sidelines for about 45 minutes to eventual open.The next morning we ate at the Metropolitan. Walked in and was met with a, “Two!?”. We sat and ordered after about 10 minutes. The food eventually arrived 35-40 minutes later, the quality was about the same as the morning before. However, this time part of my order was missing. When I asked where it was, I was met with “you still want it?”. Granted it was just sausage, but I ordered it. Instead of offering an apology at any point, I was given two cold *****s of bacon.

It was a nice stay. Overall good experience and would recommend it. Its an old hotel but you won’t have any problems. Hotel is located near the shopping outlets and restaurants.

I found out at the time of checking in there is $100 security deposit! The funds would be released 3-5 business days. This impacted considerably my already very sp**** finances. The room I reserved it was not the room I received. It was at the opposite part of the hotel, away from our group creating a very difficult situation for us. Later in the night we discovered the bath tub drain would benefit from the services of a plumber. The side of hotel our room was was being renovated. The room itself was clean. Since it was not a matter of life and death we brave the situation. We walked more within the hotel navigating between our room and a source of food or our group than we walked on the boardwalk. Be warned that many vendors accept cash only and many don’t even have prices posted. Expect from $9/slice plain pizza or plain funnel cake, $18 cheeseburger and up and plan accordingly for your stay in Atlantic City. The pool is outdoors, about 4feet deep and the bottom of it feels like plastic. I almost fell when I got in because my foot slept. I’ve never slept in a pool before! Kids enjoyed it tho.
