But wanted to check out some other things while I'm there. Which is better? Which is closer to the boardwalk? Do either of them have cool clubs, pools or other non poker features?
If your are dead set on playing where you stay I would say Harrahs. I would suggest staying at Harrahs and then either taxi or uber over to Borgata. It's right around the corner and only a few bucks. You can also nit it up and walk but it's not suggested. The Borgata has a great poker room,plenty of nightlife, and good restaurants.
The only thigh Ballys has going for it is that it's on the boardwalk. That may not be a good thing as the casinos close the Marina side are the place to be right now. Harrahs has a decent club at night called 'The Pool' which is a giant domed in pool that's open year round. It's a top 40/ open format club. Borgata has Premier that's similar to most Vegas clubs as they will have an EDM act for the night and it will be mostly dance music and a more clubby feel.
Out of those 2 options I would def choose Harrahs.
Hope this helps, feel free to PM with any additional questions.
