Since there is so much to write about, a single post won't cover it all. Thus, we have broken up our review into different sections, assigning each a special page. Choose from one of these:<p> <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/special/bgata_casino"><b>Casino</b></a><br><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/special/bgata_dining"><b>Dining</b></a><br><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/special/bgata_nightlife"><b>Nightlife</b></a><br><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/special/bgata_spa"><b>Spa</b></a><br><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/special/bgata_internet"><b>Internet</b></a><p>That last one is a bit random but since we are pretty big on hotel internet access we decided to vote some extra time to our experience. So click around these special pages and let us know what you think or if you have any questions about staying at the Borgata.<p> <p><b>Related Stories:</b><br>&#183; <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/6/25/15367/8514/hotels/The_Borgata_Hotel_and_Casino_Semi_Stream_of_Consciousness_Review">The juliana 2007-06-27T15:53:17-05:00 39.377400 -74.435685 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/6/25/15367/8514 <![CDATA[<p><embed src='http://admin.brightcove.com/destination/player/player.swf' bgcolor='#FFFFFF' flashVars='allowFullScreen=true&initVideoId=1076946614&servicesURL=http://www.brightcove.com&viewerSecureGatewayURL=https://www.brightcove.com&cdnURL=http://admin.brightcove.com&autoStart=false' base='http://admin.brightcove.com' name='bcPlayer' width='399' height='338' allowFullScreen='true' allowScriptAccess='always' seamlesstabbing='false' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' swLiveConnect='true' pluginspage='http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash'></embed><p><br>We recently spent two days inside the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Borgata+Hotel+Casino+And+Spa/ian/219277"><b>Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa</b></a> in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The key word here is "inside." We did not breathe anything but casino-manufactured oxygen for two days straight. And anyways, it was probably cleaner than the air outside in New Jersey. That said, we have got the scoop and more on staying here.<p>Today, we are bringing you a short and sweet review. Just the basics of checking into the hotel and what our room had to offer. But tomorrow, we'll report on all the other things you can do at the Borgata when you aren't in your hotel room. juliana 2007-06-26T09:30:01-05:00 39.377400 -74.435685 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2007/1/26/104652/681 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/admin/tropicana_NJ.jpg"><p>Looks like the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Tropicana+Casino+%26+Resort/ian/133153"><b>Tropicana Resort</b></a> in Atlantic City is getting in on the boutique hotel game.
