    I am not sure what tower I was in to be honest but once you got off the elevator, it was just like being in an embassy suites. The room was arranged like ES too. The problem was I booked my flight literally 15 minutes prior to leaving for the airport and just called Harrahs and asked if they would comp me a room after I landed in BWI. So, that might have been all they had and I didnt really care or even know what room to ask for at the time. It was fine and I had no issue with it.

    Well, Kris and I got lucky, and ended up getting seats together (without having to pay extra!)
    So, it looks to be hot and humid here in Houston (85* and cloudy)
    Hopefully on our puddle jump to OAJ, we can get seats together again.

    Jesus Christ!
    Atlantic city is $$$
    Parking is $5!!
    The place was JUMPING for a Monday night!
    Definitely not what I'm used to, going to Reno...
    Hell, I'd say it'd give Vegas a run for its money!!

    That's because yesterday was a holiday. Most people had off, especially banking related people which is one of the biggest industries in the region.

    The parking fee is an AC tax. But most (all?) casinos comp it if you have a higher tier card or if you don't but put in very minimal play you can print out a parking voucher from the kiosks at CET casinos.

    Better off taking the PATH from Jersey City Newport station than Newark. A lot closer and great views of Manhattan from JC riverfront.

    We enjoyed going to Liberty Island today, as well as walking through Times Square and riding the subway...
    Its so weird though, Atlantic City is soooo different than I'm used to (Reno), people play $$$ on SHITTY video poker!!! (we were next to a lady in high limit, playing $30 a whack on $ 5play 7/5 DDB!!! Lol, and she hit a royal too, haha)
    We messed around on 25c supertimespay at harrahs, just to get drinks (put in $100 and cashed out $100 after many drinks)
    Tommorow is DC and Philly...
    Also, we got the "Embassy" Suites...but really, it was quite and dark, so we slept like babies

    Sounds like you're having a good trip

    Lucky with the weather also. Harrahs used to be our spot ,but we like the Golden Nuggett better .I dont know why I never fell in love with Borgata like a lot of our friends.

    Funny as it may be, I forgot to cash out with extra money for toll/parking today...
    So this morning, on the way out, I stopped off in the Diamond Cove, and put $100 in the same (shitty payscale) STP 25c machine wd were playing last night...
    First hand we hit quad 8s for a $26 profit, so we immediately cashed out, lol.
