Liked: Cleanliness
We stayed at Rustic Inn on the upper level in a room that has a balcony w two chairs/table and view of the town. Our room was clean having a refreshing shower & the motel area was quiet especially after long travel day. A couple items that would make the stay better: having a Keurig coffee machine & extra pillows. There was a drip coffee maker that looked like it had seen better days.

Second time staying here. I chose the upstairs room with a view of the mountains and private balcony. Clean, quiet, and private with a nice breeze. Short walk to a great dinner/steakhouse. My new go-to place to stay in Ely!

Don't go there they hate white people.

I did not spend the night there. The AC didn't work. And they would not move me into another room. So when I asked her a refund, she called me a piece of c***, white cracker, told me that I had to leave or she would call up a few of her family and have meet beat up.

Stopped for one night passing through and the owner was very welcoming and so sweet! Will stay here again if ever in the area again. Our room was nice, clean, and comfortable.

I really liked the person I talked to when I called for a reservation. Since we got in later than the staff had anticipated they made sure that our room was welcoming and ready. We had easy access. The less than brilliant rating was only due to the number of stairs to our room. Pack overnight bag light.

It was rustic but had been updated.. As mentioned by many other guests Vera is delightful. Check-in was low key. It felt like a mom and pop place.
