The room was very comfortable with a number of unusual and highly welcome touches such as baking soda in the fridge to absorb odors. The property exceeded our expectations. The in-house restaurant is convenient and decent, but not extraordinary.

Clean room. Easy quick check in with perks of 2 free drinks for us at the casino bar. Enjoyed the restaurant that had lots of options both Mexican food and American. Awesome burger!! Good salsa and chips. Room was quiet and comfortable with lots of tv channels. Easy access right off the main drag going through Ely. Would definitely stay here again. Less expensive than other top brands in the area although no free breakfast. Best price was on Expedia website.

We have stayed there several times. It’s always been a positive experience. The only down side was there was no duck! Was disappointed that we didn’t get to add one to our collection.

The room was very nice and had some complimentary items. The pool was large and had cool lights. The hotel did not include free breakfast, sadly. It was located in the same building as a casino.

The hotel was conveniently located, the staff was friendly, and they provided coupons for welcome gifts upon check in (I did not take advantage). My room was a good size and the hotel ended up being quieter than I thought upon check-in. However, the facilities are a little on the older side. It "did the job" for a one-night stay.

We love this hotel! The beds are very comfortable and showers actually have great water pressure! The coupons for free drinks and gift from the gift shop are appreciated but we really love all the artwork.
