Not a new place, but we've stayed here numerous times over the years. It's a tad dated but clean and convenient to Ely explorations. The parking lot is a bit cramped though, especially when people park pickups in it. Comfortable beds and small town homey character.

Small, modest rooms but surprisingly clean and well-kept. I slept well and bathroom was very clean. Owners have done a nice job updating this older property. Good value. Several good food options just 5 min away.

The parking was a little problem. We have a pickup truck and fitting that into unit number 5 was a problem. After unloading we just parked in the street, No problem, the motel is on a corner so there are two streets to park on and because it was winter the motel owner made sure we parked on the correct side of the street .thank you.
