Downhill slide - VegasOutsider (01/23/2010) - 2 out of 5 stars
It's hard to ignore the impressive facade of the Plaza at the end of Fremont street. I've played there several times with good comps and recently took the Missus with me. The place is definitely on the decline. Games are few and the slots feel tightened. Couldn't get a drink so we stayed less than 30 minutes. This could be an outstanding place to stay and play with a little investment and TLC but right now I doubt that we will return. What a shame...
Plaza not too hot - Flatulence Dude (08/06/2009) - 1.5 out of 5 stars
Had an interesting day stay at the Plaza. I wouldn't stay there again. Hotel in very poor maintenance. First, A/C didn't work at all well. TV picture horrible. Toilet hardly flushed, had to take back off tank sometimes to flush a #2. Called front desk, Maintenance dept. came up said.... " We're working on it ". Never was fixed, best part was I learned a new brush off line. Housekeeping didn't change towels for 2 days, had to complain about that, finally changed sweaty pillowcases after a week. I saved the best for last. First morning, no hot water. Called desk, was told to let it run to get hot. It took a minimum of 15 minutes, sometimes as much as 25 to get hot. I know this sounds unbelievable, and if I read a review like this, I would think the author was crazy. Check it out for yourself, but set your alarm 30 minutes early to get hot water. Good parts were a good casino, McDonald's in lobby (24 hr)...subway, pizza etc. Good location near Fremont St., but be careful by the Bus Station next door. ( lots of strange characters there. )
Must be a magnet... - VegasOutsider (04/06/2009) - 3.5 out of 5 stars
because something kept drawing me back. Didn't stay here but joined the players club and kept showing up here each evening. Only played slots here but won more often than not. Atmosphere was good, waitresses friendly and efficient, good comped drinks, casino was roomy, good comps for not a whole lot of play. Next trip downtown I'll try the rooms. Worth a visit.

We have been staying at the Plaza for about 30 years. I booked 4 rooms for 7 days for family, deluxe king so we would have refrig's. The check in was about an hour, 3 rooms on one floor and one on another. Booked in July for Feb 2009. Rooms themselves OK but no Frig's had to call and have some sent up, took 4 days for the last one, 3 of the rooms were not cleaned at least once. Door keys went bad on 3 of the rooms several times, blaimed on us. the people who were in the rooms used their cred cards to check in but my card for some reason was the only one one the rooms...Sister in law had an e-mail with the price for her room, taken at checkin but at checkout they refused to use that price and ended up putting her room on my card. Had to contact the hotel management when we got home and got it all taken care of. It was a pain!!!!!
fine no frills - Carrie B (03/03/2009) - 3 out of 5 stars
I have stayed at the Plaza numerous times and I find to be a constitantly good place to stay on a budget. The rooms are basic and staff are proficient. You get what you are paying for. One plus is that most rooms have very large windows, depending on you view there can be nice views. Last year I got the unexpected awsome spectacle of a desert thunderstorm (lightening). I was in a high floor and I turned off all my lights and was able to enjoy an awe insipiring lightening show. Please note: I live in Kansas and lightening is very routine here, so this shows how impressed I was.
