I stayed here on a business trip from 10/10/11 - 10/12/11. Got a great rate thru our corporate travel department but it wasn't worth the savings. Twenty years ago this was probably a nice hotel but now it needs to be updated and cleaned up. The room wasn't really clean but it wasn't gross. The drop ceiling in part of the room and ratty old curtains shows its age and uncleanliness. The bathroom tiles around the tub were old and the shower fixtures were almost falling off the wall. The handle for the shower had to be pulled so hard to turn on the shower I felt like it was going to come off.
I did not eat at the Plaza restaurant. It was closed the first night so I ate at Darby's Sports Bar in the hotel lobby. The chicken breast sandwich was sad. The actual piece of chicken was about 1/8 inch thick. I was forced to eat here again the next night because I couldn't find any other place near by. Decided to try the pizza because the waitress told me it was the best. Bad Move. It was clearly something pre-made that was just heated up in an oven. Tasted like cardboard.
My Tip: Stay on the north side of downtown closer to the restaurants and bars and in a nicer newer hotel.
