Rotation wont really work unless the structure is gigantic (many miles in diameter) otherwise you will suffer from dizziness. Rotating spaceships like in many movies are probably making everyone on board sick.

This is true, it's why I suggest using a large asteroid for just that reason. Either way though, I promise you that altering a human's vestibular system to accommodate spin is a MUCH easier problem to solve than generating gigatons of antimatter fuel.
