First night comped at the Water Club was like what the [--]??
(Yes, my friends, they do comp for their profitable Borgata players, you just have to ask.)

All this anticipation for a glamorous water spa club experience was dashed the minute i stepped foot into the hotel room!!

Small, cluttered rooms, waste of space, with gigantic leather pillows that serve no purpose at all, and don't pick up those snacks or we will charge you.

Yes, they have conveniently placed boxes of snacks and peanuts, tempting to the hungry, so that if you even pick it up off the dresser you will be charged!

A refrigerator packed with cans of soda and bottle water!! For the thirsty guest, there will be a hefty price if you remove a few of these precious items.

Yes, thats in Las Vegas too, but this ain't no Las Vegas and never will be.

The clumsy sized flat screen TV, with a remote that takes forever to change channels..forget channel surfing.

The pools are tiny sized (two outdoors) with every lounge chair occupied by 230pm, forget about relaxing there!!

move on to the spa!! What?? charge on top of this? yes you have to pay $35 to use the spa, with nothing more to offer then the wading pool and small gym and the showers (big deal).

now off to the lobby, quite pretty, lots of marble, not bad, but what the hell can you do in a lobby? Sit on the large square couch and think of ways your not going to gamble?

Now to the shops..what shops? theres a corner newspaper store with $40.00 boxes of chocolates..a no thanks i'll pass,
Theres a mens fashion store, i ain't paying no $200. for a shirt..sorry, now off to the womens shoe store..oh no i ain't buying my girl a pair of $175.00 sandals there. NO to the jewelry store..forget about it..i don't have $8,000. for a ring.

so what do you do there?

I know!!

hey its about 100 feet from the casino..lets gamble.

The biggest rip off ever! If you want to pay over $600 a night for leather pillows on your bed and a place to plug in your ipod then stay there. There is nothing else to offer!
Lets talk about the water...
You cannot enjoy the pool until you check in. Even then pray they are not at the max or you have to wait until someone leaves. You have to run down to the pool first thing in the morning so you get a chair( just what you want to do after staying up all night) Then you can not leave because once you check out there is no going back to the pool. The outdoor pool is so tiny, You really can't believe it.

I also had to wait 15 minutes for a bloody mary at 6 pm on a Saturday because they didn't have any mix left.

I have stayed at hotels all around the world, this hotel is terrible.
It's very hip looking and that's it. What a waste of time.

It is not worth the $600 per night that they charge you. They do not let you utilize the pools unless you are checked in with a room key. So if you arrive at 1pm and you cannot check in, you cannot use the pool. The pools itself are pretty, but not big enough to accomodate everyone. There is actually a wait to get into the pools!!! Also, if you look on the website, there is a beautiful picture of the cabanas which you can reserve. The picture shows a row of about 8 cabanas. In reality there are only 4. That is SUCH FALSE ADVERTISING. Also, people we were with tried to reserve one.. they were put on a waiting list... only to discover they remained unused the whole day.. with the reserved signs still on them. If you are going to call yourself the WATER CLUB, then do it right. Do not make the pools too small to accomodate your guests. They should have just named themselves Borgatta 2. It is a very pretty hotel, but the fact that they charge so much money, and are not very accommodating to their guests makes me NEVER want to stay there. The staff seemed very dim witted. When we had difficulties, they just kind of stood there shaking there head and saying, I'm sorry but there is nothing we can do... For that price, the problems we had should have been rectified...There were problems with our check in, there were problems with our television.. I could go on but I will stop here. I have had better customer service at a Comfort Inn.

OMG!!! We had a great time this weekend @ the water club. The staff is wonderful. The rooms are to die for. Don't forget about the pools and spa. If you want to stay in one of the best hotels in A.C. please make it the water club!!!!!!!!! You wil not be disappointed!!!!
