Easy access from Airport, easy access to Mandalay, has a grass area and you don't get lost like in some big hotel halls. Pretty human, and close enough to ok eating joints.
Because it is a motel sometimes people come late at night or early morning parking their cars and talking or laughing out loud.
On Las Vegas Boulevard and therefore convenient for access to the new (south) part of Las Vegas entertainment area. Convenience store on site. Easy parking. Near to tour bus stops and gas station. Good price.
Intense helicopter activity overhead during daylight hours.
The room and staff worked well. The location was perfect for the tradeshow at Mandalay Bay and was close to inexpensive dining. The price was a little high for the condition / level of motel, but was low, considering the location.
Closer to the main clubs and casinos, good location, good service (staff), easy to find, good value for the money
smell of the room they use a lot of perfume on it
Great location and great value.
Wish there was more weatherstripping around the door.
Very Friendly staff. Helpful. Clean large room and quiet.
Friendly staff, Nice pool
missed the free coffee or any other breakfast in the morning
Location was great at the start of the strip and within walking distance to the bus stop. The lobby of the motel was a convenient store with everything you need. I am a diabetic needed fridge for my medication they couldn't provide a fridge but they gave us ice free of charge for our length of stay.
There was an attachment room with no ac or fan in it.
Great location on the south end of the strip. Cheap family room for 4-5 people. Excellent staff and friendly check-in. The man working the front desk was a gentleman.
There have been reviews of bedbugs at this location. We were wary after examining the sheet casings and mattress linings and finding what may or may not have been bedbug evidence (these things are often shrouded in paranoia). However, we slept there regardless and did not suffer any symptoms of bedbug contact. The female guest in our group was the most reluctant to stay there, though.
If your like me and don't mind a low-scale hotel when your in Vegas because you don't plan on staying in your room too much this is the perfect place. I plan to stay here every time! The staff is awesome. The grounds are out dated but clean. They have a 24 hour deli and market attached and your right across the street from Mandalay bay. Perfect for me!!!
The pool was empty, but honestly...so what?
The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms though basic were clean and everything worked. Very very good value for money !
Nothing. Only some other reviews who seemed to want the Ritz on the cheap!
everything
My kids and I really enjoyed spending the nights at Motel 8 because we loved the exciting nightlife, and everyone on staff were very nice.
There was nothing that displeased me about my stay.
Very friendly staff, good coffee at the reception, walking distance to the Strip LV South 10 min.
Even I put don't disturb, they open the room!
Directly across street from Mandalay Bay. Beer and ice and gift shop, snacks and deli in convenience store at front of hotel (where you check in). I considered this a perfect cheap place to stay for attending a concert at Mandalay Bay. Who needs tv and an expensive, extravagant room in vegas?? You don't go there to sleep. The beds were comfortable for the little time we spent there.
It was not the cleanest room. The carpets should be removed and just put dirt in. Bring shower shoes. I didn't see any bugs, as referenced in other reviews. I did use 2 small cans of Lysol on the beds, just for my own comfort. Not sure it was needed. $50 round trip cab ride to Fremont St. Worth it though.
Directly across from Mandalay Bay. Up to 5 people (three beds) for under $70 on The Strip - hard to not like.
Sheets were seemingly fresh, clean. The rest of the place could have used a wipe down (not exaggerating), even a fire hosing. Opted out of using the shower - waited until I returned home. :/
Easy access, away from all the traffic from the LV Strip. Nice fast food restaurants just next door.
Unfriendly staff, and by the same daily rate you can stay in a fancier hotel at the Strip (if you don't mind all the traffic)
We liked the pool, free parking, and the proximity to the airport.
We found the carpet in the room to be quite dirty, and we ended up wearing our shoes inside (perhaps previous guests have done the same, causing the dirty carpet).
Good location for what I wanted to be close to for a fair price on weekend. People work there are super friendly.
Improve more on hygiene; provide more shampoo and soap maybe.
Friendly staff.
The showers needs to be upgraded not alot of water pressure. Need fridge and microwave and cable need more options very little channels. Thier was no water in the pool to relax in the day.
It's on the strip; across from mandalay bay; easy to find from the airport; and I kind of liked the friendly cluelessness of the guys in the Deli/Office. Some reasonable breakfast option would be nice.
Madams and Sirs: Silly as it sounds, their usage of the hardest and scratchiest toilet paper ever was the biggest let down, and actually makes for an uncomfortable stay. I'll say: Upgrade that and you won't loose customers too embarrassed to speak up.
The man didnt give me back my 10 dollars cash for key deposit.
Booking said the cost would be 107.80, but I was charged 125.57.
Located right on the Vegas Strip. Rooms are clean. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Older motel, shabby. Although friendly and helpful, staff did not present a professional environment. Fly by night. Front walls of rooms are very thin. Sounds carry into rooms from outside.
I liked the location and that it was very affordable. The beds were comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful for the most part.
The shower walls looked like they needed an upgrade. We requested maid service and didnt get it. Also the maintenance man left the smell of alcohol in our room when he came to fix out remote. The man who worked the check in desk around 4 pm on 3/8/13 wasn't the least bit helpful. And even started talking on his cell phone while I was asking for help. The bed sheets had stains on them.
good location on the strip
very limited, no extra towels, no extra pillows
low cost
condition, staff
The location. The price. Free wi-fi. Friendly staff.
The too soft mattress on a wooden box. The soap was rough. Poor lighting. Wall socket plates were loose. Lack of hand towel.
Close to strip.
Dead roaches in bathroom. Did not change sheets at all or make bed. After first day no shampoo. Crack in door jam. Sleep with one eye open!
Cheap and close
Three rooms before one that was OK,
Dirty and smell very bad!
Location (walking distance from Las Vegas Strip)
- There was a strong smell of still water coming from the bathroom; - we found cockroach in bath tub in the morning; could not take shower; - we asked for compensation for not being able to use what we paid for, but stuff did not care and did not do anything to resolve the situation; - will never again stay in Motel 8
Price...
Did not have a late check out....owners where rude and forced my drivers to wait outside or they would charge them another night...that is my biggest pet peeve...late check out(especially being in Vegas owners should know that) most likely will not stay again...
No phone. No hot water. No services at all!
The air conditioner worked kind of.
The roaches that ran into my ear in the middle if the night. The toilet ran all night. It took an hour for the guy to run my business cc during check in.
the place was dirty, the pool was closed. i booked 2 night but only stayed the first night cause i don't feel like staying there again.
to be in Vegas
the motel stinks we even felt bugs on the bed.
Nothing it was the worse Motel I have ever stayed in.
No running water, could not shower or flush toilet. When problem was reported was told sorry can't do nothing about it.
They kept knocking on our door and waking us up even tho we paid and no money refunded for our inconvence not very happy
