This is the second time we’ve stayed here! While the property is a little old they’ve done a good job of keeping it up. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. It’s very centrally located easy in and out. We travel by motorcycle and like to park right outside our room. We will stay here again if we’re ever in Ely

The rooms are clean and well kept. Unfortunately the walls and ceiling are very thin and I could hear everything the upstairs occupants were doing. I was only here for 1 night and the room was adequate and priced right for a quick stay.

The motel clerk was very helpful, kind, and efficient. The beds and shower were amazing. Good coffee. The sink water flowed slowly, just had to be patient. Really enjoyed our stay there.

Generally a nice stay. Only issue was Hotels.com booked a 1 bed unit when we needed a 2 bed unit….but the front desk person corrected the issue!
