It is clean, small, somewhat dated, and toilet is extremely low. Suitable for short stays.
We stayed in a room with 3 queen beds, one being in a separate room. It was very nice, and the owners were very friendly and accommodating. We had a great stay and would highly recommend!
We loved staying at Hotel Ely! They have screen doors so you can actually have your door open to enjoy the beautiful weather. Shops and dining are easily walkable.
This is now one of my favorite motels. The staff was friendly and the room was extremely clean. After 6 days on the boundary waters this place was comfortable with a welcoming warm shower…however, you do need to bring a hairdryer.
