You get what you pay for this. Economically priced location, location, location. The room I had left a lot to be desired. My refrigerator was broken, my air sounded like a Mack truck through the room, the water was lukewarm, never hot, the first couple of days I had resigned myself to taking very quick, very cold showers until the lukewarm kicked on. The free cable featured about three stations and the door on my entertainment center never quite closed right, I kept my clothes in there because the drawers stuck and I didn't come to Vegas to be in a wrestling match, I will leave that to professional boxers. My lamp shocked me each time I turned it on. However, my friend who had the adjoining room, nothing was wrong with his room, so it must have just been my rotten luck to get the room where nothing was quite up to par.\nBUT! It was always, always impeccably cleaned every day. (They don't clean your room everyday unless you hang a sign on the door requesting room cleaning...fresh towels? Yes, please!) \n\nThe view was really pretty, I didn't get a Fremont View, I had the train tracks view that run behind it, but the mountains were in the distance and it was quiet on that side. (Honestly, I didn't see or hear one train) \n\nLocation was perfect right at the end of Fremont, so you could walk all the way down and back without having to back track past your own hotel. I prefer staying downtown rather than The Strip because I think that's where it's at. The odds are better and everything is within walking distance, helpful if you are drinking. And you are in Vegas, so chances are, you are drinking. \n\nI have to say the casino is my favorite in Vegas. Except when the house band is playing and they only play for a few hours at night. But you get a great view of the Fremont Street Experience from inside the casino. \n\nThis is the only \"resort\" that doesn't have a Starbucks, it has a Seattle's Best (which is a subsidary of Starbucks, but a very poor imitation.) If you are from the East Coast and know what a real bagel is, I definitely do not recommend getting one from here for a quick morning breakfast, it was like boiled Wonderbread. Totally gross. \n\nI would have stayed here again, I mean yes, I had some snafu's concerning the room, but, like I said the location is great, it has valet, it's safe, it's convenient, fun casino...but they are renovating currently and the new rooms look really great, I can't wait to stay in the new and improved Plaza. Oh and it has a pool...one of the only places downtown that has one.
