The Ambassador Motel sits along Fremont Street advertising $16 rooms and packaged liquor.

UPDATE 12/08 : The Ambassador East Motel was demolished in December 2007. The motel opened in 1952 and eventually closed in 1996. Another Fremont treasure is now just a memory. 12-08

The Downtowner Motel is located in, yes, downtown Vegas. Check out this simple, yet eye-catching sign.

The Desert Moon sign features a yellowish moon orb atop its eye catching and tall marquee. This motel is one of the remaining survivors of the old Fremont strip, which sadly has many that no longer light the neon way at night.

Check out the Gables and its set of weekly rooms. Looks like another of Fremont's best has gone to long-term boarding.

How about the Towne & Country Motel for some sun and sand? Not sure where the sand comes from, but there's certainly sun!


Clark Inn (Demolished)
Las Vegas, NV

The Clark Inn Motel is a sign advertising a motel ... that's no longer there. Yes, the arrow does point to a vacant lot.... how poignant.

UPDATE 05/06 : The sign for the Clark Inn was also taken down from the site several years ago. Currently there is nothing at the site other than a dirt lot. 05-06
