My wife and I stayed here and the place is fine, for the money. Sure it's kinda run down, but for the money, this place was perfectly fine - as the cheapest option for the Friday night we stayed in the Vegas area. Fairly clean, fairly quiet, although the area immediately around the motel is a bit scary with all sorts of shady characters walking about at all times day and night (especially night). But once inside your room, the place is perfectly fine - for a cheap motel. And that's what it is, an affordable motel! I know there are rich people who often pay upwards of $80 a night (or more!) for a room for a night, and for them they can have their fancy rooms with spotless toilets, squeaky clean sinks, fresh bright white linens, ice-cold air conditioning - let them live in their expensive luxury. For the rest of us, there's the Downtowner motel, a great way to save $$$ in Vegas!

Really nasty place. There was smell of smoke all over; linens are in terrible shape. One good this is that they have a security guy watching over parking lot. Considering the shady area around, I would say this is a plus.

I wish I could rate the motel a 0. My kids were afraiad to walk on the carpet. My husband was afraid to use the toilet. The front desk stuff was uneven, and smoked alot. The toilet was uneven. The headboard was coming off of the wall. This motel should be called "The Ghetto Inn". There was trash all around the property. 0There was an unknown substance on the bed. Which is cleaner? a room at ther Downtowner, or a prison cell at the CA State Correctional Facility? My husband said his cell was cleaner than a room in this dump. I'm surprised this dump doesn't changeby the hour!!! The health department should close this dump down.

1. Check-in took forever

2. two women at the check-in window, one supervised the other one and not handle other customer in the line. While one woman handled my paper work, I asked the supervising woman for a simple question, in stead of answering me, she replied " she is working on your stuff one by one. she will answer you when she is done"

3. Non-smoking room fill smoke odor

4. Bed sheets not clean.

5. FOUND Cockroaches !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I chose this motel because hotel rooms $100 or less were sold out on internet. At $29.99 per night, this is one of the cheapest, I am sure. The room was not too bad and was equipped with a refrigerator and kitchenette. The TV had a few buttons missing, but worked O.K. About 30 Cable channels including HBO were available. The bathroom looked clean. Air conditioning worked fine. Local phone was free but the management asks not to use modem for internet access as it will overwhelm phone line capacity for other guests. They will install an extra local line if you request.
The old man in the office was friendly and helpful. So considering the price, I do not have much to complain. Just don't expect any luxury. It is 4 blocks from Fremont experience, 3 blocks from Las Vegas Strip (301 and 302 bus stop there), 1 block from 109 bus stop to and from airport. So transportation was not inconvenient. They offer free parking and swimming pool. My only complaint is the neighborhood. I can see boarded-up store fronts and a few drunken people staggering in the street at night. I did not feel too safe even though it was a few blocks from Fremont experience.
