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.

Its not far from the strip. Room was nothing like the pictures. Jacuzzi didn't work properly, so we couldn't use it even after we cleaned it. The bathroom smelled like mildew. Not enough washclothes and towels provided without asking for them. Overall i would never stay there again, from management to the property everything needs an upgrade

Great place to stay

Good hotel, seems like a typical Las Vegas motel on the outside. Great staff, clean room. Kitchenette a big plus and only about a mile from major downtown attractions.

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.

Got bug bites while staying here. Ice machine was locked up with a code and didn't work sometimes. Keyless entry for door was broken. Non smoking room allegedly but ash trays were provided and many guests smoked immediately outside the rooms. Air conditioner didnt stay on in my room. I brought a personal safety concern to their attention and front desk staff offered no assistance.

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!

Check-in was the only good experience I had. When I got to my room, the stove burner was on and it took me awhile to figure out how to turn it off. I had to cut my stay short because of an issue with the room. I tried to contact the, Emergency Phone Number, that I was told was always manned and I left a message, that was never answered. The Checkout was through a Ring Doorbell Cam and I could barely hear the person. The area is also unsafe. As I was driving away, just around the corner from the Motel, the Police were arresting a couple of people at 9 a.m.
Drawer in the kitchen with discarded condiments packages and a roach.

Above cabinet that looks like it has been overlooked for cleaning, that was right above stove.
