Front desk was very accommodating. Room was clean. Everything worked. Apparently the hotel is upgrading some rooms. This room didn't have a microwave but we asked the front desk and she brought us one immediately.

Ely is a small town with very friendly people. There are multiple hotels to stay in, each with a slot casino. The town seems to roll up around 8pm but the casinos are 24/7 and resturants within them stay open a bit later. The Great Basin national park is about an hour away and this would be where you would want to stay if you are visiting there as the town of Baker, where the park is located is very very small with only 1 shop and no gas station. We came for the Northern Nevada Railroad experience and my dad drove a steam and deisel engine train there. This is a museum as well. The railway is truly the town's gem. If you come for the railroad experience, take a day to drive to the National Park, and make sure you also visit the White Pine Museum if you like small county museums. The people of Ely were all very kind and genuinely nice. If you are just roadtripping the loneliest highway(Hwy 50) and drive through Ely, make a stop and check out the historical Hotel Nevada.

I love Ely, this is my 4th stay. I have always had a memorable experience. One thing I wish I could have enjoyed was the new art gallery and Mercantile downtown. We arrived after they closed and left before they opened. So cool hearing the train blow its whistle as it chugged through town as well. On a former trip we visited the White Pine museum and it far exceeded our expectations. Worth a stop, for sure!

The people that I have dealt with in ELY have been very courteous and friendly. From gas stations and market to restaurants and fast foods, everyone has been very personable. It makes a stay over very enjoyable

Best place to stay in ely is the Pioneer and la Quinta. Really good food options here, I suggest margaritas inside pioneer for Mexican food and good friendly service. Nardis unfortunately closed... and the local restaurants are pretty good like Piccadilly pizza and the local steakhouse. The art museum and the connected store is a fun visit, the thrift stores are charming, highly suggest coming between fri-sat.

We loved the wide-open space, the handy access to the Northern Nevada Railway Museum, which was our reason for coming to visit. Totally loved the Renaissance Village as well and although we didn't get there, close to the Lehman Caves (next time) at the Great Basin.
