There is a reasonable selection of motels in this old mining town in the middle of nowhere Nevada and this one turned out not too bad.
The front desk lady was very pleasant and helpful with directions to the supermarket.
The motel itself is pretty dated but the price was right and it was clean.
The bed was comfortable and the front desk lady delivered more pillows on request.
All in all good value

For the life of me, I can't understand how the other reviewers could have given decent reviews of this property. It is a very run down, rather dirty-looking and poorly-maintained place. I only made a reservation there because everyplace else in town appeared to be booked and another hotel in town recommended it. When I arrived the man at the front desk, who was wearing a filthy tee shirt, told me they were full and he could not find my reservation which I had made two weeks earlier (although I was able to point it out to him - it was on a post-it note on his calendar). Thankfully we were able to drive down the street and find a very clean and nice Motel 6 just around the corner on Great Basin Highway - for the same price. You are much better off going to the Motel 6 instead... same price, much cleaner, better and safer location - and about 50 years newer (and the front desk staff wears clean clothes).

I like the place. It is always clean and comfortable. They remodel the rooms and make it nice. It is not the Ritz, but it is very nice.

When Ely's casino hotels are full, and even the chain motels have "No Vacancy" signs, this recently renovated motel may have space for you, like it did for me. The owner was a bit grumpy when I checked in around 9pm, but the room itself was a pleasant surprise, with unique decor, a spic-and-span bathroom and fast-acting heating and A/C wall units. The parking lot is tiny and cramped. Some of the weekly tenants were a bit boisterous, but the white noise of the heater blocked that out, no problem. I'd stay here again, as it's conveniently located not far from downtown.
