Room was clean and the staff was polite. But it could use newer remodeling. The breakfast was a meager offering, but better than nothing. And what they had was suitable. I appreciated it because our one night stay was just to rest, get up and have coffee and be on our way. And that is probably the exact clientele they are used to. I would stay here again if I needed to.

The room was clean and the staff was very helpful. A refrigerator and/or microwave would have been a nice addition. An earlier breakfast would have been helpful.

We always stay at this hotel when in Ely if we can (sometimes it is full). The service is great and people are friendly and helpful. In addition the rooms are especially clean and maintained. The only complaint is the scarce breakfast that is not a good variety.

Very nice staff. Old hotel, looks like they have been trying to remodel. Really noisy, next to a main street. We probably will not stay there again. But….. fair price.
