The outside does look old, but the room was new and very good condition. The only problem I had was there was nothing in the bathroom to put toiletries, my toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, etc. on. There was also no towel bar which they are definitely aware of as the towels were on the bed when we checked in. It just needs a shelf by the sink & towel bar by the tub and it would have been perfect. The kitchenette was nice. The manager was great.

Room was interesting, some components brand new (shower, sink, bathroom, TV,) bed/sheets clean, yet tile floor was very old/filthy, baseboards dirty/need painting, and I literally could hear every word of the 4AM conversation in the room next door even though the walls are cinderblock (i.e. there must be pipe/electrical holes not properly sealed). Motel in sketchy area of Vegas, road out front was shut down for nearly 2 hrs due to shooting 1 block away. Front desk was nice, and stay was only for a night so rolled with it

When you pull up you think it’s just your average run down motel .. ohhhh no, the inside was super super clean, full functioning kitchen and a great comfy bed. So spacious and decorated very nicely . If you need an iron, they got you and even give you a portable ironing board. The lady who checked us in was super nice: About a 5 min drive into downtown . I would definitely come back and stay here

The man who helped me at the little window (no office) was very nice and helpful. The reason for the low rate is because this place is very much DOWNTOWN. It seems as though people live at this motel. The room was not the dirtiest. You can tell they did make an effort to make it clean, neat and look as good as they could but it still wasn’t what I was expecting. It also had a weird cigarette smell even though it was a non smoking room.

The jungle room was exactly as pictures showed, bed was comfy, jetted tub was nice and relaxing. We stayed 2 nights, the heater/ac was loud enough that we didnt hear much of the outside noises, the tv had an ok selection of channels and things to watch, and parking was never an issue.

My biggest complaints about the room were that the floor could easily get slippery when exiting the tub or shower so we asked for extra towels to lay them on the ground, rugs/runners would be an excellent addition to the room especially by the bed. The were very few outlets in the room for charging devices or to plug things in like a hair dryer or straightener.

We visit Vegas frequently and for the price, we would likely stay here again.

This motel and staff itself was good, but the area was a bit sketchy. If your from the hood or think your a tough guy then you should be fine, lol.

I caught myself checking out the window to see if my car was still there. Now to be fair. the room itself was good. The kitchenette area was usable and had cooking supplies. The shower was a bit small so if you're over 300lbs, you'll better off using a hose outside, jk.

The bed was comfortable enough and the towels were softer than most hotels. The customer service was good and everything you need for a comfortable stay was provided.

If this Motel was in a different neighborhood, or you don't judge a book by its cover, it would rank higher. I would say it may scare away most skitish people.

That being said, I had NO issues with my stay. I wasn't bothered or otherwise approached. No one broke into my car or felt unsafe.

If your in vegas to party, Freemont is a walk down the street. You will more than likely survive the night if you stay, but there are better options.

Overall Rank 6. Room 7. Area 5

The male worker who checked me in was rude and gruff, the rooms were not as impressive as advertised, the parking lot had shrubs and wild grass, and the showers had extremely low water pressure. What’s stopping me from giving it a 1 is that the rooms had a freezer and a stove, which was nice. But, even so, I won’t stay here again.

The newly advertised $58 a night is much more proportionate to the actual value of the place, compared to what I paid in advance some months ago. Way over priced, especially with the extra $25 a night for a pet… but like I said I see prices have went down. No complaints about the place itself. It’s just down on Fremont Street and you gotta be aware of your surroundings. Close enough that Ubers are still cheap to get downtown. Easy check in and check out. Have some permanent residents but everyone was respectful. It’s good to see people getting off the streets. I would stay here again for downtown events.

The room itself was clean and the staff I interacted with were kind, which I truly appreciated. However, as a solo female traveler, I did not feel safe staying at this property. The surrounding area felt uncomfortable, and the room door did not fully secure, which added to my concern.

I ended up checking out shortly after arriving because I did not feel that the environment was safe for me to remain overnight. I explained this to the owner and asked if I could be refunded for the night I would not be using. Unfortunately, my request was declined, which was disappointing.

While this property may be suitable for some travelers, I would not recommend it for women traveling alone or for those looking for a secure, peaceful stay. The location and lack of security features were ultimately dealbreakers for me.

So I will say that the first impression of this place is creepy. But I will say that the room although it was a bit small was clean and comfortable and had everything that I needed for my stay. I didn't have any problems and no one bothered me. For the price I would definitely stay here again when I'm looking for a cheap Las Vegas stay. If you are looking for a luxury Las Vegas experience do not book this motel. But if you are wanting a clean comfortable place on a budget I would definitely recommend this place.

Vintage & Charming Motel Experience

We booked this motel the day we arrived after finding it on Hotels.com. We were looking for a reasonably priced room on a Saturday night and appreciated that the Desert Moon has free parking and did not charge a bunch of extra service fees, beyond the refundable $50 damage deposit. The Desert Moon provided us with a charming and traditional Motel experience. It's in a quiet location on Fremont Street in the older part of Las Vegas. The area just a few blocks from the Motel is vibrant and full of great restaurants and nightlife, and of course, the Fremont Street Experience. The room was well kept, freshly renovated and everything worked. We didn't happen to use the kitchenette, but on a longer stay would find it most useful. The staff was friendly, responsive and helpful.

The quality of the motel is about as expected for the rate during EDC weekend, but the service was fantastic. The front desk man was very kind and helped us into our room when we forgot our room key once. They also shipped my dresses back to me that I had forgotten after checking out and driving back home.

There was quite a bit of dirt on the tile floor when we first arrived, but that was the only drawback I can think of, not sure it was entirely avoidable either, considering the door led directly to ground level outside.

Overall stay was exactly as we needed for our weekend!

Disappointed with Hotel.com

The outside looks rundown. Upon entering the parking area I said to the Lyft driver “Lord, I hope the inside looks better than the outside.” Upon stopping the car a woman opened the car door and she started talking, interrupting our conversation and she would not stop talking. I could see my driver getting upset and she apologized to me for the nonstop talking. I thanked the driver for the ride and got out of the car and she immediately made a U turn and was leaving. I got her attention and she stopped so that I could get my suite cases from her car. She left and the woman who was nonstop talking turned to me and said “I would never leave you, with that comment made to me I turned and walked to the office. I was able to get my room key and entered the room and it was reasonably suitable. I left the room to get ice and turned to the left and there were two women standing just outside their rooms just standing there. I returned to my room and evaluated the situation. The place outside is rundown, I would not be outside the room after dark, for a tourist there is nothing to see or do. There is a 7-11 store two blocks away in each direction and that is it. The room fee is $100.00 per day and I was booked for two nights. In Feb. when I reserved it that was not the charge. I explained to the office guy that is not how it is done. He said I could discuss it later with the owners. I stayed the night and left very very early.

Plan ahead with dogs

This is a nice and clean place to stay if you want to be super close to Fremont downtown on a budget! Only four stars because although it is pet friendly it is not a place to bring your dog if your dog barks when alone. Which mine did! The staff were very nice and accommodating about the situation and worked with us which was great. I was just completely unaware that would be an issue until about an hour before we checked in despite having called and asked the rules on dogs a number of times before this phone call. Not an issue if you’re aware ahead of time which is the only reason I mention it! Make plans to bring your louder pups with you places! Otherwise very helpful and friendly staff with a comfortable and clean room for a good price!
