My bf and I came here from Jan 1-3rd for a quick getaway trip.  I love Bally's for it's location and cheap rate.  I originally book it for $87 a night, then a few days before leaving I was able to only pay $66 a night..  Since we booked a rate for the cheapest room, when we checked in, slipped the front desk guy $20 and asked if he could upgrade us, and he did.  The room didn't disappoint, it was a king room in the north tower, which is a bit newer.  He also gave us a bunch of coupons for the neighboring Harrah's properties, lots of 2 for 1 drink deals.  I would not hesitate staying here again, especially if I can get a cheap rate.
