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!

I had a few nights stay at the Desert Moon. I drove in from LA for a little business, didn’t want to deal with the big Hotel scene. Pros: Truth in advertising, not common these days. - Everything was what the site said. Room was clean, everything worked. (Kitchenette was awesome!) - To my surprise, very quiet. - Staff was friendly and helpful. I was checked in by the Big Aussie (don’t know if he was Australian but I like that handle). Check out simple – no touch (keycards in the drop box and rolled out @ 6AM) - Liked the towering MoonBall logo over the Motel, I used it as easy finder when finding my way down Fremont St. If you’re looking for granite tabletops and gold fixtures, the Bellagio has lots of rooms. It seems the emphasis at Desert Moon is no frills value for the dollar. Cons: Area Located in a working-class part of LV, and there are a contingent of folks that aren’t represented on the Las Vegas Strip glossies. How that impacts you as a Motel guest is completely subjective. One evening I walked from the Motel to 7-11 two blocks down with no issues. Mostly people mind their own business and its advisable to do likewise. But that’s my subjective assessment and experience. Overall, Desert Moon is saved on my phone.

Amazing property. I have lived in Vegas since 1998 and I can surely say I have never witnessed such an amazing property on a budget like this one. You want to witness the real Vegas? Stay here! Minutes away from all the action. Amazing staff as well. 1000 stars

I had the best hotel manager/host (Natalie I believe) that I’ve ever had. Very accommodating, communicative, and kind. The room was really clean and the area is fairly quiet. It’s a little out of the way from the major tourist spots so keep that in mind :) would recommend if you don’t mind having a little bit of a drive to your destinations

From the get go, the check in staff person was super gracious and explained all the quirks of the property in advance. My kids were a bit skeptical about the location & exterior, but once you step into your unit, you are transported to a high end big buck ultra cool unit. Some reviewers may not be ready for the full Fremont experience, especially if they come from a cocoon of suburbia. I am 66 yrs old and loved walking a few extra blocks to places like the Ferguson with ultra hip coffee shop, F Bar! Etc. If you are timid or unhip, there are other choices, but this old fart loved it!

I've stayed at many hotels and motels around the Vegas area over the past several years, and Desert Moon Motel is clearly putting in the effort. The area around the hotel is sketchy, but they have plenty of security camera coverage and have done their best to mitigate potential issues. I had zero issues while there, and though the building is quite old, they are clearly putting in a significant effort to keep it updated and enjoyable. The room that I had was very quiet, and it was probably the best rest I've gotten in Vegas yet. Everything looked new or relatively new. Modern fixtures, beautiful tile, and a 4K TV that didn't give me any hassle when connecting my own devices. After checking in on Friday, I had a question Sunday evening, and the manager addressed me by name without even having to give my room number. The staff at Desert Moon Motel actually care about their guests and the facility. Quite the change from my usual experience in Vegas. I would definitely class Desert Moon Motel among the hidden gems of Vegas.

Nice place in a not so great area.
I needed a place at the last minute. This place cane up on Hotels app. Got there, easy check-in, room was across the parking lot from office. Room was clean and comfortable. Shower was good too, though I ran out if hot water faster than I'd like. A/C worked great too. Had to go back because I forgot something and they were very nice about it.

Fine for a cheap stay, a little dicey
Chose this motel for a quick stay to get a break from our camper van and take a real shower. Truthfully just chose it because I didn’t want to spend much. This part of Fremont Street is pretty sketchy. Lots of folks down on their luck, on drugs, and mentally ill. It’s close enough to the Strip that we took a $20 Lyft to Caesar’s Palace which was fine, but on the way back our Lyft driver didn’t even want to take us back to this part of town. The front desk gal when we checked in was incredibly kind and we had a good chat, but the next morning when we were getting ready to leave I couldn’t get anyone in the front desk for a hair dryer until after 10:00. The room itself was fairly clean (just don’t look in the kitchenette drawers), and bed was comfortable, but most of all we just couldn’t relax in this part of town. We each got up twice in the night to check on our car.
