Very Good

Great, affordable option for a Downtown Las Vegas stay. We appreciated the nostalgic charm of historic Fremont street by staying in one of the original motor lodges. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.
It's been years since I stayed at this motel and it has been remodeled since my last visit. Property looks nice, the staff is great and the rooms are clean. I would like the bed to be a little bit higher.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Clean room, huge new TV and microwave! We enjoyed our stay so much
Rooms are large and very clean. You can definitely tell TLC had been put into the room, down to the super soft towels. Would definitely stay there again!
Room was very nice and clean. I especially like the fact that the rooms were practically soundproof -- When I walked outside to get something from my car, I could hear the people in the next room arguing -- but once back inside my room, I heard nothing at all. Also, the staff was polite and helpful.

Staff were friendly , room was clean... wifi n parking free.
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 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.

Incredibly arrogant staff. Very abusive and condescending and humiliating.
I have to admit I was nervous when I arrived to the motel because the area around the motel was run down with closed and empty buildings but I was pleasantly surprised when I got my room it was newly updated and very clean. The staff was very friendly. I would stay again on my next trip to Vegas.
We stayed in a theme room with jet tub. Water never really got hot enough. Room was clean, but not abundant with guest amenities or extras. Would stay again & reccommend
