White Pine Motel

Not too much. They had a construction crew overstaying their original time frame so we had to give up our down stairs room to them. They didn't want to move them. We did. The woman in charge was very apologetic about the process. We attempted to understand.

The hotel was completely overcome with these workers. It seemed like an outside party. The room was another matter. It was not what one would expect. The two queen beds were under a king headboard. The "new" carpet did little to improve the room. The bathroom shower head was actually a pipe coming from the wall with the shut off and on, a lever. Who does this?? Nope! Not happy with this one.

It was clean enough, but the maintenance is very poor. The curtains where about 3 years pass their useful life. The ceiling had screws with washer holding it up. The rooms need some good maintains.

Due to the poor maintenance, it gave me the feeling that I was staying in a poor neighbor hood, even though there is no place in downtown Ely that I would consider a poor place to stay. With a little proper maintenance it could be a great place to stay.

There was no breakfast; check-in was miserable and attendant didn't have reservation information. She did make accommodations for me and was pleasant. The room was upgraded from a smoking (which I did not want in the first place) to a non-smoking. The room was run down, no air, water went in and out hot/cold, stains on sheets, pillow cases and towels. I wouldn't let a dog sleep in there. I stayed out late and dreaded going back. I cancelled one night's stay because of these conditions. Horrible experience period.
