We stayed here in September and really have no complaints. We were not expecting luxury and we got clean comfortable and friendly. Walked downtown to an old hotel for dinner that was surprisingly good. More

We stopped here, nervous of the quality of this place. We needn't have worried. The service and staff are very friendly. The room was clean and, with the exception of an ill-fitting bathrooom door, in very good condition. Beds were comfortable. The continental breakfast hours were posted as 6am-9am. We got there at about 8:45 and everything was ready and... More

This motel is not up to the price they charged, but everything was full because of horse races. Very strange room (132) had long hallway leading to backroom where beds were. Hotel was clean but air conditioner was in back corner and curtains obstructed. We got a broken down fan from the office (all the electical wires were exposed) and... More

The Main Motel in Ely, although small, is an excellent choice. Room was very clean, quiet, 2 queens, micro-oven, small fridge, net access, and best rate found by search engines I use. I certainly recommend it. Also, the Big Apple restaurant up the road (50 going East) about 2 minutes is an excellent place to eat. More

I probably wouldn't have chosen it based on it's streetside appearance, and gone on to the Best Western next door. Glad we stayed at Main Motel. The lady who checked us in was happy, friendly, and helpful. There is a charge for pets that isn't in the description - $10 cat, $20 dog, one-time, not per night. Clean, fairly new... More

I chose Main Motel based on Trip Advisor reviews. I am happy to report that the Main Motel proved the reviews to be accurate. The front desk clerk was very nice and friendly and accommodating. It is true that the rooms can be VERY small; and as a fellow traveler commented, the double beds are quite small and short. So... More

We stayed two nights at the Main hotel. After a noisy substandard AAA hotel in Elko- I was very plesantly surprised to see such a compact property offer excellent ( I would even venture above average) accomodations at one of the most reasonable rates in Ely . The nationally rated Ely hotels had nothing over the Hotel Main. Tough our... More

This property is small and is old by today's standards BUT it is clean and the three rooms I saw were all like mine. My room was freshly made up and contained all the amenities one expects in todays newer motels. There was an iron and ironing board, hair dryer, coffeee maker and the items necessary to enjoy it.
