Location was good, on the main road. The room was basic but clean. On the downside the office is only open from 7:00 AM until 7:00 pm. So if you need assistance you have to call someone to come back to the motel.

The only drawback to this stay was the weak internet-I could not do some work that I needed to. The motel had an old fashioned feel to it but it had all the amenities and was lovely and quiet.

Clean & Affordable

There was some lag between the booking on the site & its showing up in the motel's system, but it worked out. The room was tidy. The bathroom was clean; there were a couple of Cheet-oh pieces on the floor. The location is close to many businesses.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was very clean and lots of space. I love being able to park right outside the door to my room since that makes it easier to unlaod. The beds were very comfortable with lots of pillows to choose from. The area and the room were quiet and within walking distance to restaurants. The refrigerator was great!--large, with a seperate freezer compartment. Water was soft, which isn't my preference since soap doesn't rinse off well. The shower and bathroom were spotless. I would rather not have carpeting since it's so hard to clean and a smart TV where I can sign into my apps to watch programs would have been nice. I would stay there again.

Nice motel by Ely standards

This a clean no frills roadside facility. It is directly next to a highway that is fairly busy/noisy until around midnight. The staff is friendly and helpful. The morning snack is not a breakfast with hot coffee and cold juice. The food is all package in small proportions, If you want a real breakfast go elsewhere (if you can find it)
