What I HATE-Some of the Reviews are HORRIBLE!
OUR EXPERIENCE: Arrived about Noon to 1 pm on a Wednesday in October of 2006. Check In Time: 3pm...3rd Floor Check In...knew this before going, so proceeded to 3rd Floor..Lots of Reviews have complaints about this...Waited for one person in front of us...Check In took about 5 minutes. Room was ready, and we had no trouble finding it. Elevator's worked fine. We were on the 14th floor...2 queen Beds, Carpet Clean, Beds Clean. Furiniture older, and Hotel quality. Bathroom VERY small, but efficient...Hot Water, Clean Tub, Clean commode, Clean Walls....no mold. Although Bathroom was very small...Dressing Room made up for it....probably 6' x 7' Nice size sink and Vanity...enough for 3 people to put all their stuff out...Large mirror and Closet, But only one Suitcase Rack. (We didn't use it!) Also a 4' X 8' Full Length Mirror right outside the Dressing room! It was really nice that someone could shower or use the commode, while someone else could brush their teeth, and I could do my hair and make up without the mirror steaming, Room also had a Round Table and Chairs....which we used occasionally to drink Coffee and eat Doughnuts. TV wa small..but we weren't there to watch TV! Paintings looked like Crayon done by a 4 yr. old...but Lot's of ART is BAD, and commands more than I would pay...nor would I want it in MY Living room! And again, We weren't there for an ART SHOW! There was a tear in the wall paper in the room, and one out in the hall on the way to the elevators....maybe I'll pack some Contact Cement along on this trip and fix it for them...but it's not enough to make me not want to go back! Check In Staff was friendly and courteous, as all staff seemed to be if addressed...otherwise, they seemed to mind thier own Business! Saw no Drunks or Bums around the Front Door to the Lobby as other people have stated, and although both my husband and son were along, we all pretty much go our separate ways, and I usually come in very late......3 or 4am sometimes...by myself...no fear or apprehension about returning to the Hotel alone at these wee hours of the am. Did not do well at the Slots here, but my Brother who also was in Vegas at the time did very well on the slots at The Plaza! If I'd have hit BIG, I'd have rated The Plaza a 10! Check out went as fast as Check In....our room was large & clean, staff was courteous, Room was Ready upon arrival, Air Conditioner worked fine and was not noisy....Never ran out of Hot water, and it went right down the Drain, and the sink drained also...The Price is reasonable, and we are hoping to stay for a week this time! If you like Golden Faucets, and a Tub with Jets, fancy Light fixtures, and Paintings...The Plaza isn't for you! But if you like the convenience of being close to other Casino's, a comfortable Bed to rest your head, a place to clean up and change clothes, and head out for another day.....then give the Plaza a try! But then I liked The "Lady Luck " too! What a sad story!
