Staff was nice, rooms were clean but very small. The pillows were terrible and had to ask for extras but the bed was comfortable. I wish there would have been a towel to put on the floor for coming out of the shower.

Awesome Stay

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is in town on the main street walkable to restaurants, shopping, coffee and ice cream. Our room (#26) was clean, stocked with bathtoom toiletries and had a comfy king bed with comfy king pillows. The bathroom was stocked with all necessary toiletries. There were soft chewy cookies every day in the office which was a treat. The owner was super nice too. Will definitely stay here again if in the area.

Great little hotel! Perfect location for exploring Ely on foot, and very clean room. Being dog-friendly was important too. We left a charging cord behind and Shauna mailed it to us! Super nice experience
