Nicely renovated older motel. The room was clean and cozy. Breakfast and coffee offerings opened at 7 a.m., a little too late for my liking, so I missed it. I suggest a small charging station/clock on one of the nightstands for convenience. Overall, it was a great night's stay, and the price was great!

Front desk gentleman was very friendly and helpful. The facility was in very rough condition--from the parking lot to our room. It was a clean room but I can't say I would stay again.

The front office staff was super nice and helpful. The room was older, but clean. The location allowed us to walk the downtown and visit their shops. There was casinos too, if that's your gambit.

The property is under new management. Overall the room was good. My only issues were the blankets were too thin and the heater was insufficient as it was still getting very cold at night. The management is in the process of making any needed improvements that are reported.👍

Was passing through town for the night and was looking for a place that was clean, comfortable, and affordable. This place checked all the boxes. Ely is a small town and the area immediately around the property wasn't terrible or anything, but it's not overly inviting either.

Awesome service

We had a late check-in (didn’t arrive until 11:30 pm) and the owner waited up for us to assist us. Room was clean and comfortable. Only complaint is the breakfast options weren’t amazing. But other than that it was great value for the price.
