Oasis at Gold Spike

Las Vegas


This former motel adjoining the fabulous Gold Spike nightlife venue offers upscale, though still motel-style, music-themed rooms set around a great little pool, smack bang in the middle of the Fremont St District. It's noisy at night and the street-frontage ain't the best, but great value can be found at this little oasis.
