This is a great place to stay. The staff and owner were exceptionally nice. There was a small grass lawn area right in front of the row of rooms I was in - so pleasing after a day of high desert driving. The continental breakfast was typical, except the fruit, including wonderful tasting mandarins, was actually ripe, unlike every other place that I've stayed on my long trip. The room was very spacious - a nice break from being in my car all day. I would definitely stay here the next time I'm in Ely.

Just stayed 1 night on a road trip, Room was ok, clean and spacious but there was a horrible smell which came from the a/c, after we turned it off it was ok. Breakfast was basic, it would have been nice to have had some toast, all that was on offer was raisin bran, cheerio’s and some flavoured oats. Something less sugary would have been appreciated. The hotel was a little dated. However it was nice and clean.

A good experience.

Got to the Hotel at 10:45 PM and they were closed. Had to drive all around town and find a place that was open and had vacancy.

Convenient & adequate for my stay

The staff was very helpful and friendly, making me feel welcome. Excellent tips for finding my way around town, as well. Hard workers.

Fine as once before

I was totally impressed with the customer service when we arrived. The front desk clerk was so friendly & very accommodating which was a pleasant surprise.

I want to like The Bristlecone. I have stayed there for years. They have redone the rooms. I appreciate that effort. The thing I did not like this time is that the “breakfast” offering is getting less and less. It should not be called breakfast. It should be Coffee, juice and snacks. The last two visits two weeks apart the morning staff person might not be doing their job. On the first visit there was no milk for cereal. I was told that all the milk at the grocery store was almost expired so why buy it? On my return trip there was no fruit. I was told that all the fruit at the store was old and ugly. There seems to be a theme here. Also there was a hose laying across the walkway as I arrived and thought someone had been watering the plants. The desk clerk said she had seen but didn’t know what was going on. The hose was still there the next morning.

Old school hotel where the room was clean, water hot, and bed comfy…

Property is nice, room was good. The breakfast was not so good.

Great location , nice people

Overnighter. Price right. Removed smoke alarm in room

I like the suite with 3 beds. The carpet needs cleaning.

It was a peaceful rest. Thank you!

Convenient location and reasonable rates. Staff very helpful. Good for pets. OIder property that has been reasonably well remodeled.

Staff was great when they were around but not really a concern. We enjoyed our stay. Expedia said breakfast but it's only coffee n danishes.

Clean remodeled for the most part. The bathroom was very small

Simple, clean, comfortable rooms, great for the price. There was a small grassy dog area right in front of the rooms, and the neighborhood felt safe to walk our dogs at night. 10/10 will be staying here if we overnight in Ely again!

This is a great value and the rooms are clean.. its not a marriott but it works if you are looking for value

We always like staying here. Our room was close to Hwy 93 traffic (Room 108) but it was easily accessible for us as senior citizens. The gal who checked us in was friendly and helpful. When she noticed our key didn’t work, she came running from the office with one that did.

Breakfast was not much...a couple of containers of cereal (but no milk) a few muffins and granola bars. Juice container was not working. Coffee was fine.

It was ok and convenient

Everything was amazing until the next morning when I talked to the front desk where they informed me that I didn’t have a reservation that day. That I had made through you. So I was very lucky to find another room down the street. I was extremely upset that this happened and I am hopping that I won’t be charged for that day.

The motel was very nice. There was a lot of very loud road noise. We had a fan to drown out the noise. Otherwise, the noise would have disturbed our sleep. I did not like the breakfast choices.

I have stayed there multiple times before. I hike at an amazing local state park and have to get up early. I am not looking for a bunch of fancy facilities(pool, etc). This is a simple motel, that is always clean, quiet, and treats people well.

Very kind check in and very helpful

I always stay here when I can. Good rooms, nice staff.

Very friendly staff, safe neighbourhood to walk around. Good strong coffee in the morning

Good place for a night

Good to support local owners

I travel through Eli 2-3 times a year. Recently the motel has been remodeling. Great. But the last two times the room had no refrigerator. Not great. The front desk let me use the kitchen refrigerator for the food from my icebox and to refreshed my blue blocks. That was good. But that caused me to see a very messy and somewhat dirty kitchen area. Also there was no bedside table in my side of the bed. Not good. Otherwise I like still like the non-chain vibe of the place… even when it is a yawning teenager at the front desk.
