First room we had was not great but we got moved to a wonderful room that appeared newly renovated. Very charming, and comfortable. Breakfast was packaged sweet buns so unimpressed. And the laundry used very strong scented soap so being sensitive to scents we both had headaches. That was my only complaint and not everyone realizes how much Gain and Fleecy bother others. If not for the laundry soap I would definitely stay again.

It's Ely at night on a weekday. Not much going on. Bristlecone is the best place in Ely in my opinion. Mexican restaurant next door is good and rooms don't stink of cigarettes or pot like the other hotels.

I always stay here when traveling to/from family in Elko. If they don't have a vacancy, I push on to Elko/Vegas. My only regret this go was that I arrived late and was put in the room closest to the highway so I had some noise but managed to sleep anyway.

Although it was not the motel’s fault, there was a bunch of homeless people standing around when I arrived. The motel property itself seemed okay but I did not feel safe to get out of my car as one lady was swearing so loud and I couldn’t tell if she was talking on her phone or to me.
