This motel is perfect if you don't care were you stay, as long as its cheap and safe. I would consider this Motel 6 the best motel in Vegas. But that isn't saying much, you should see some of the motels in vegas.
Motel 6 provides a decent place to stay, for a decent price. Its pet friendly, and perfect if you're a student, young, and preferably a male. There is no gambling on this site, and the cleanliness is inconsistant. Somtimes you win, sometimes you lose.
The staff is friendly, and the rooms are what you would expect from a motel 6.
The location is great, on tropicana, and inbetween the airport and the strip. There is a good pool to relax in, and a mini mart on site for all your needs. A small restaurant that serves meals too.
Consider this place if you "don't care were you stay". But if you're intimidated by motels... don't risk it, its just like all the others. Go to a hotel.

Obviously not the best hotel in Vegas but I found it to be good value. A short walk from the strip, a couple of shops nearby and a good value cafe on the way to the strip. No coffee making facilities but free coffee from the shop in the mornings. It is a very large hotel and very spread out so you may end up some way from reception but there is parking throughout so no problem. I happen to be an aircraft enthusiast so had asked for a room with an airport view and got just that from the helpful receptionist (not sure if all of them would have been as good!).

We booked this place because it was the closest place to the trip that would accept pets. After I had booked my room I had decided to extend my stay, their website was limited and I had decided to make another reservation, thinking it should not be a problem for them to leave us in the same room, also, we arrived a day earlier. This was a total of 3 "orders" for them. I asked to stay in the same room for the whole stay. The night manager was stupid enough to ask me to go EVERY DAY of the stay BEFORE 10am to make that request at the reception. Who wakes up before 10am in vegas? And who wants to the reception DAILY when it does not makes sense. After explaining to her with puppets that it made non-sense she mumbled and gave me what i wanted. ?!? All this took over an hour, I swear. During that hour, I saw a minimum of 5 hooker-like with customers checkin in. It seems to be a "regular" workplace. The room was very noisy, I could easily ear the neighbor TV, just not the TV but what is being said, etc. Our neighbors were noisy until 5am-6am steadily but reception did nothing to improve after we called to report their abusive behavior. Also, on a couple occasions, we put a sign on the door to NOT make the room, both in english and spanish but the maid would not care and do the room anyway. We even told her verbally and she refused, saying the request had to come from the office. The beds were awful and of very different quality. The pillows as well. I would say avoid, unless you have a dog and want to be close to the strip.

We knew exactly what we wanted in vegas, cheap and clean accomodation. We werent bothered about staying at one of the flagship hotels on the strip, as we were in vegas at the beginning of a 3 week western us tour, so were economising.

This motel 6 was clean, and not as noisy as you may expect being close to the airport. It had a nice big pool, not that we used it, and ice was easily accessible from a machine. The aircon worked good.

Free coffee before 11am from the on site mini mart is included. The strip is about a 400 yard walk away (or take bus 192)

All in all a decent budget stay in vegas for 5 nights!
