Don't judge a book by it's cover
Curbside appearance is not the greatest but once in our room it was found to be pretty decent and comfy for our needs. Within the motel area itself, it was very quiet, no craziness or drama you'd think to encounter. The managers were very nice and helpful with our needs. It's not my first choice of where to stay but I wouldn't mind staying here again.

I am originally from Las Vegas and came to visit some friends on vacation. I chose this hotel because it is close to my favourite parts of the city (Arts District, East Fremont). It’s new since my last visit and I was not disappointed! So cute, loved the Jungle Suite. There are cute kitties that protected the property, too! I would say that the area it is in is not quite developed yet and looks rough, but I felt safe the entire trip. Great value, wonderful staff, would stay again next visit!

The area the motel is in is very sketchy. Lots of homeless. Once inside the motel though, its very nice! Looks newly remodeled, the blankets smelled freshly washed and everything was very clean! During our stay, it was very calm and the homeless didnt go into the parking lot at all

small business striving to compete-stay here!
the reviews are what brought me to the motel, and was not disappointed. Other than taking awhile for hot water, room was very nice, TV great and location/price top notch. The area is starting to clean up, and I didn't have to get valet for car or walk 10 blocks. Real close for downtown, so yes i will recommend. Plus the sign is real piece of Vegas history

Room is just a basic hotel. NOTHING fancy about it. It is clean, it is comfortable, it has a mini kitchenette, and it has been updated with quality fixtures. No resort fee so that was nice. I have nothing bad to say about it. We will stay again.

Clean, Inexpensive and Pleasant Stay!
I see the owner on here responding to many about the reviews, and asking how he can make a 8/10 a 10/10. So I'll answer. 8/10 is about right. Let's start with the positive. The room was very clean. Most of the furniture is a bit older, but functional and updates have been made. A cool feature was a working burner top and plates/pots/pans and silverware. Microwave and fridge, too. Nice TV. As others have mentioned, the neighborhood might be intimidating to some. That's mitigated some by being able to park right in front of your door. That being said, it was very quiet. I have stayed in some seedy neighborhoods many times and there are often people outside the door or sounds coming from outside/next door. Not here, and I was here on two weekend nights. The downtown music/shows, which are often heard when staying close to downtown was not heard at all. Here are the suggestions I'd give. 1. Update the A/C unit. The unit in my room said don't turn below 74 or there will be ice build up and I came end of October when Vegas weather is still a bit warm. It wasn't unpleasant, but struggled a bit to keep it cool. I would suggest updating because I would want a colder room in the summer being from the north. 2. The door needs some weather stripping. There were cracks with daylight coming in around the door. I saw no bugs, but a few could potentially sneak in. If you want an inexpensive, yet pleasant stay without a lot of walking, I'd recommend. Great stay. Thanks Michael!
