3stars  Never Again (West Tower, 31st Floor is a dump)
I have gone to the Tropican Hotel many times to play at their casino. I thought it would be a superb place to stay at. I was highly mistaken. I dont't know what type of job screening they do on their employees, but i came across staff members who appeared high on i don't know what, but it did not look appropriate. One staff member in particular who was being trained was falling asleep at the registration counter. The room i stayed in was not properly cleaned, the bed was dusty and there was dust or some time of mildew on the ceiling. Management was not apologetic or interested in customer saitisfactory. Moreover, i ended up noticing some time of bug bite on my hand when i left that hotel. I strongly would discourage anyone from staying at the Tropican Hotel.

2stars  bugs and other problems
Hello,

This was suppose to be a party for my girlfriend's birthday which turned into a mess. Our first room had bugs on the bed so they did switch us after I complained long enough. Waited on hold for 15 minutes before I went downstiars to the front desk. Our 2nd room had a broken light and broken safe so we could not store our valueables safely. They refused to help us out after that. I always figured that if you are paying good money one should get the basics services as a clean room.

5stars  Very Much Recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My husband and I come to Tropicana on occasions. We highly recommend it. It's only adults with us, but have seen kids at the pools. Wouldn't recommend the area for families. Not alot for families to do....Swim.....Dancing, Beach bars, walking the board walks, shopping, massages in the Quarters or on the boardwalk....

2stars  The most disappointing visit EVER
This was the most disappointing visit EVER. After driving 2 hours with children, we arrived at this crowded, smoke-filled hotel only to find the line to check in so long, it was leading to the escaltors. When we reached the desk clerk, we were told that our room wasn't ready because the previous occupants "weren't ready to leave yet". When our room was finally ready it was after 4:00pm. Upon entering the room, we noticed there were all sorts of stains on the carpet, pubic hairs on the bathroom floor and some type of hard white stains on the blue bed pillow. The towels had mysterious brown/yellow stains all over them. The pool left alot to be desired too. There was some type of foam floating on the surface. Needless to say, we will never return.

CALLED TROP FOR RESERVATIONS, NEEDED TWO ADJOINING ROOMS.

I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL 2 MONTHS AND WIFE LEG OPERATION.

WE WANTED OUR DAUGHTER CLOSE BY TO CUT DOWN ON WALKING.

NO DICE THEY SAID AFTER WE WERE TO DRIVE 7 HOURS TO GET THERE.

WE WANTED TO GO SEPT. 17. WE DON'T THINK THEY WERE SO BUSY THEY COULD NOT BLOCK OFF TWO ROOMS.

WE DECIDED NOT TO GO TO AC. TABLE GAMES ARE COMING TO WEST VIRGINIA AFTER FIRST OF THE YEAR.

  Filthy and Low-Class, and then there's the rooms...
Under whelmed is the 1st word that comes to mind as you walk through the hotel and casino areas. After the zombie at the desk checked me in my wife and I began the long journey with our bags to the North Tower which meant taking an escalator and a long walk through an area of the casino filled with heavy traffic. We had to carry our bags and laptop computer despite me being handicapped with braces on both of my legs and my walking with a cane because no one was available to help us. The long trek through the crowd introduced us to the class of people that are patrons of this dirty, smoky hotel and casino. The smell of booze on all the drunks was surprisingly strong considering the thick smoke that fills the air of all parts of this hotel and casino, even in the so-called non-smoking sections. (My arm was burnt by a woman walking past me in a non-smoking section of the casino). After fighting our way through the mass of people we stood for 20 minutes in a crowd of people waiting for an elevator. The rudeness of people amazes me when a middle-aged couple struggling with their luggage (that they shouldn’t have to be carrying) and a cane are pushed, shoved and boxed-out of getting on the infrequently available elevators. When we finally arrived at our non-smoking room and walked in the first thing that hit me was the strong smell of smoke. I sat on the side of the bed and called the front desk and was told by someone very annoyed with my call that it is definitely a non-smoking room. I told him that there are two cigarette burns on the table the phone is on and I was told this could not be so and that I was mistaken. The digital photo I took shows them to be without a doubt cigarette burns, the first of a series of photos I will be presenting to Frank Buro, the President of Tropicana. I have photos of how filthy the room was, from you guess it a cigarette burn on the carpet, dirt and sand and dust on all the furniture, rust in the bathroom, rust around the windows, windows so dirty you could not see clearly through them, peeling wallpaper, the coffee table was made of some cheap metal and besides the dust, dirt and sand it also had many rust spots all over it. This place is like a cheap motel in a bad part of town. Not convinced yet? How about semen stains and pubic hair on top of the comforter covering the bed! The couple in the room before us obviously couldn’t wait to get under the covers so they left their hair fluids on the comforter and so did the maids! This is getting to be a long story so I will skip most of the remaining details. The hotel staff’s response was annoyance and ours was disgust. I became such and unpleasant situation we checked out but not before I made sure I got the President of Tropicana’s name and address and phone number. He will hear the long version of my experience and view my photos. The Tropicana should be sold to someone who will remodel it and maintain it as a classy place it now only pretends to be.

Unlike Caesar's that smells like a nursing home and Bally's that looks like a 'walker/wheelchair' convention, I like the Trop. Will return.

  Stay away on weekends!!
Too many college age people there just looking pick up girls, get drunk, be loud and annoying. Only one place worst for the same reason is the Borgata.

yes we plan to visit The tropicana later ytis year and will once again stay at te trop. Everyone was very helpful and exceptionally pleasant. While playing the slots our hostess the morning we left was Catrina. She was one of the best I have ever seen taking care of her area. See you this fall.

Thanks for A great Time.

  worst place ever
I took a bunch of residents from my assisted living facility here for the day. The people were so rude to them, they made us drop them off in a garage, drop the bus off 10 min away, pay $35 to park it, and get a cab to come back for it. The people in bus relations were so nasty and rude, Jasmine, Drew and the manager with the terrible toupee to be exact. They harrassed me and the residents telling us we didn't stay long enough, we got there at 10 and left at 4 pm. They told us not to come back because we were not staying 5 hours which we did after they gave them $5 to play with. They wanted us to pay the $5 each back, and tried to keep us from going. They tried to block us in there and even told an officer outside near the garage, who by the way told them they were acting ridiculous. Won't suggest this place to anyone, not to mention it's not very handicapped accessible.

  Can't believe all negative comments. Have had nothing but great experiences at the Trop for over a year and a half now, down 2/3 times a month. Staff is friendly and helpful, my health problem always taken into consideration. Rooms are always neat and clean.

  Dear Ms. Popielarski,
I have been a patron of the Tropicana for over twenty-three years.My husband and I always enjoyed our stay, had access to Diamond Jim's and were treated with friendly and courteous service. We made many good friends over the years.Twenty-0ne months ago, I lost my husband. We always drove to The Trop, but now I take the bus.I usually go from Sunday thru Thursday twice a month.Our old friends always make me feel at home and I couldn't be treated nicer.

I have been introduced to 3 Card Poker, which I enjoy immensely. There are 2 dealers who are especially dear to me.One is Lester Schiller who taught me how to play and the other is Scott Baird, they go out of there way to make me feel at ease and make the game so much more enjoyable. I must say that there are others who are just as nice. But everyone has favorites.They should be commended.

I enjoy the tournaments and shows as well. I just wanted to voice my opinion and let you know I will always be a loyal patron.I also enjoy the Quarter and the singer who sounds like Frank Sinatra.

Sincerely,
Mrs.Rosemary Grieco
Effort, Pa
