Terrible experience. I had multiple rooms with multiple issues. The a/c wasn’t working and the rooms were terrible hot. The plumbing in one room didn’t work so guest had to use someone else’s room for bathroom needs. Rooms smelled like smoke. Multiple elevators didn’t work and took over 30 mins to get to the lobby. Valet parking was a nightmare and took over an hour to drop off and pick up your car. Stay was rude and unpleasant. None of the issues were addressed before check out and during check out the staff told me to take it up with Expedia. I filed a complaint Expedia in which they did nothing but apologize for the inconvenience. Overall, totally dump and everyone agreed the hotel was the worst part of the trip.

The air conditioning in the room was barely working. The coolest we get the room was 75 degrees. The water in the sink in the kitchen area was a drip at best. Finally, we valeted our car and someone hit it. No one told me and had it not been for my daughter who noticed it I would not have been advised while onsite.

Great location but challenges with room amenities.

Given that my expectations of The Plaza Hotel were quite high, I was very surprised at the state of the room I was given. The phone did not work, the refrigerator placed in the room did not work, the towel bar fell off the wall after barely touching it and the air conditioning unit was not responsive to any adjustments (but thankfully it did work). Also, it seemed like only one of the four elevators was working all weekend, leading to a very slow descent on checkout day. On the plus side, the location was great, along with the view, and it was very handy to have the $17 per day self serve parking connected to the hotel.

The building was difficult to find and so was parking. There were no signs for anything. It was a hassle to park in a garage that was 22 dollars a night, and have to walk with all of your luggage to the hotel. The elevators didnt work right. Then you get to the room and have to cal l for blankets and towels.

Only had one elevator working during checkout hours on a Sunday. Waited 20 minutes for an elevator and ended up hauling everything down 11 flights of stairs. But other than that it was pretty good.

This hotel only had one working elevator with 22 floors to go to. We had to wait over 15 minutes for an elevator. The AC in our room was not working throughout the whole night. We had it set down to 66 and it stayed at 74 all night. The elevator reeked of weed.

Great location to visit the state capitol of Ohio. Walking distance to the state house and the Riffe building where the legislators have their offices. The rooms are large, comfortable, clean and well appointed. The front desk staff were pleasant, professional, and very good at their jobs. I booked this stay for myself and several of my colleagues. Everyone was quite pleased. We will be returning soon.
