AC has a lot of taxis and Ubers. If you stagger out of a hotel at 1am and want to go somewhere else, call yourself a car. I’ve foolishly walked the streets of AC late night and it’s not for the feint of heart.
I’ve only trained into AC once from Philly. Took too long and schedule not great. Prob not a great idea.
Plenty of hotels 15-20 minutes out of AC if you look around.
There are a number of high rise buildings on the boardwalk that are condos that are rented out. Never stayed there but see them in expedia. Prob an acceptable choice if you are not expecting luxury accommodations.
Galloway is a town 15 min away that seems to have decent cheaper options.

Personally, I'm staying in the boardwalk area as I feel it gives me the best options to just leave the car where it is, run in the morning, walk to the show, and socialize afterwards. The convention center is just over a half mile (15 min) walk from the boardwalk; just be smart about the path you take, times you're going and, mingle with a group which shouldn't be too hard. Parking at the convention center seems pretty straight forward if you're coming from the AC Expressway and just going to the show. The convention center has a train stop for NJ transit if you want to park outside and take the train in. If you stay in the Borgata area, definitely Uber or drive.[/QUOTE]
