This is an older motel on Fremont and close to the Downtown experience. This is not the best of neighborhoods but it is on the upswing and all of the rooms are completely redone and are very nice. The inside was great for the value and the room was sparking and smelling super clean. I am now a regular here when I come to town.

It looks nothing like the pictures, it’s basically a motel 6 without the cheap price. It’s in a horrible area full of unfriendly people. Vending machines don’t work. Bright side there are 2 7/11 within walking distance. I would use cation when going their also.

This will be a long review so if you want the bottom line: It's two thumbs up. My daughter and I went to Las Vegas for a week to work a convention. We needed a microwave, a refrigerator and a reasonable price. The Desert Moon was a real find. Apparently you need to check in before 7pm which I don't remember seeing. Chris (our desk clerk on check-in) called us mid-afternoon and asked what time we expected to log in (we were driving from the Bay Area). We told him that we anticipated 7PM, he said fine. No mention of a cut-off. Good customer service. When we arrived he checked us in, walked us to our room, verified that both our keys worked and wished us a good stay. Great customer service! The room was clean, contained everything we needed and had both a sink and a 2-burner cooktop besides the refrigerator and microwave. The water pressure is great and the hot water is fast and hot. The shower has both a rain shower head and a hand-held. The bathroom and closet were both no bigger than they needed to be but perfectly functional. We have no complaints/opinions about the neighborhood. We live in a city and the neighborhood seems both safe and normally urban to us. The only time I heard yelling in the parking lot at 4:30am it was a AAA guy in our parking lot. He gets a pass. If your idea of a hotel is the Marriott, this is not for you. If you want a really great bargain in Las Vegas, check it out,

The motel is located in old downtown Las Vegas, so don't expect lush surroundings like the Strip. Since it's on a main street, there can be some car noises late at night. It's only a few minutes drive from supermarket and inexpensive family/fast food restaurants, so very convenient for taking care of basic needs. The staff was friendly and helpful during my check-in. I only stayed three nights, didn't ask for housekeeping service, so can't comment on that. The room itself appeared to have been renovated some time in the past. Things looked a bit dated now but were still in good condition. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. If i were staying longer, I'd have used the small kitchen to save on meals, but not this time. If you're a glamorous tourist, this place is not for you. But if you're a practical traveler looking for value and can handle yourself in an older neighborhood, I'd recommend you take a look at this motel. I myself will definitely consider staying here again.

Good, affordable rooms
Room was very affordable and about 3/4 mile away from Fremont area. Parking lot is tight. Hotel doesn’t have actual lobby so all business was conducted through a little window outside. There is an ice machine but it’s in a locked door with a code and pretty far from our room. Others customers seemed sketchy smoking weed outside on the front steps of their room and having loud conversations in the early hours of the morning. I was worried about my car even though I could see it out of the window. Room itself was actually very good but bathroom lacked hooks or towel racks making it a little tricky to use. We had a kitchenette but didn’t need to use it so I can’t comment. There were no pots and pans or dishes but again we didn’t need it. Best price for a room off strip we found. It worked for us but just wanted to point out a few concerns.

I will be glad to stay at the Desert Moon motel again. I read the reviews and knew that the area was safe and walkable to the nearby 7/11 and the 20 minutes to the Fremont Street Experience area. The young man who checked me in was so pleasant and efficient. The motel grounds were neat and quiet, and my room was clean and so much more updated than I thought it would be- new t.v and stainless steel in-room sink and appliances, as well as a rain shower head in the bathroom! I would recommend bringing a little portable light for the bathroom, for some additional lighting to do makeup. I really enjoyed my stay!

I never write reviews but I really loved my experience staying at Desert Moon Motel, the staff is super friendly and you do not have to struggle looking for parking you have your own designated space right in front of your room. My rating is 10 out of 10 I would give it 💯.
