2/10 Poor

No Stars
We chose not to stay after walking into the room. Too many things to list but here are a few - bed spread was old and tattered, drapes broken, overpowering smell of disinfectant, chair had an ill fitted cover on it hiding ??. I didn't look. Went to another hotel. Requested a refund since we hadn't even brought our luggage in. We were told we would be refunded but nothing has happened at this point.

Website said the lobby was open until 10pm - we got there at 7:30 and learned during winter lobby closes at 7 (but manager was still there getting ready to close up and had texted me about getting into our room. Room was near the busy road so we could hear traffic throughout the night

Cozy & Warm - vintage motel
We were warmly welcomed by the ladies in the office. The room was easily accessible-parked right out front. Since we opted for the suite, it had a couch and fridge, which was nice. Beds were comfy and warm, with plenty of blankets and an actual thick bedspread. It was a chilly night, but we were comfy and warm. Breakfast was free, but was just packaged pastries.

Disappounted
Reviews said it was quiet but it’s on a main road & so there was traffic noise all night. Shower had mildew on tile. Chip in toilet. Sink did not drain. The (included) breakfast was cereal (no milk), packaged breakfast bars. Disappointing.

Bring your own bath soap
Our room was next to a major highway and traffic could be heard all night long. The room was fairly clean and comfortable. Walking distance to dining and shopping. Free parking. Continental breakfast offered. Bring your own bath soap.

2/10 Poor

It's a waste of your money to stay here.
The heaters made a buzzing noise all night. I could not sleep because of it. I thought if I turned on the bathroom fan it would drown the buzzing sound out from the heater. The bathroom fan sounded like a diesel truck. So that did not help. I did not brother the front desk cause they could not change out the heater or the bathroom fan. This hotel needs to be remodeled. Do not stay there.

Nice hotel
We wanted an inexpensive hotel that is clean and functional and Bristlecone did the job. It's nothing fancy, but it was clean, in good condition, and comfortable. Breakfast is pretty meager, some cereal and packaged muffins, etc. Everything in the room worked well, bed was comfortable, and the heater worked well. I would stay here again.

4/10 Fair

Disappointing
Breakfast was included, but only included two types of dry cereal, coffee, two types of juice and two types of bars. No fresh fruit or anything hot, like eggs. Our room was near the street and traffic woke us up all night long. I would not recommend this hotel

Good hotel, convenient location.
We enjoyed our stay at the Bristlecone. The staff were very friendly. The room was dated but very clean. Mexican restaurant across the street was excellent.

A great place to stay!
This is a great place to stay. The staff and owner were exceptionally nice. There was a small grass lawn area right in front of the row of rooms I was in - so pleasing after a day of high desert driving. The continental breakfast was typical, except the fruit, including wonderful tasting mandarins, was actually ripe, unlike every other place that I've stayed on my long trip. The room was very spacious - a nice break from being in my car all day. I would definitely stay here the next time I'm in Ely.

Ok for a 1 night stay
Just stayed 1 night on a road trip, Room was ok, clean and spacious but there was a horrible smell which came from the a/c, after we turned it off it was ok. Breakfast was basic, it would have been nice to have had some toast, all that was on offer was raisin bran, cheerio’s and some flavoured oats. Something less sugary would have been appreciated. The hotel was a little dated. However it was nice and clean.
