- Larry J. (10/5): - The proprietor was so friendly ,helpful just a great person and she had the cutest dogs.
- Kevin (10/5): - Very nice owners. A great place to stop while on a canoe trip to BWCA.
- Howard (10/5): - It was a charming, old fashioned motel. Just what we expected.
- Greg (10/5): - Great place that served our needs perfect! We were going biking and it was conveniently close to the trail!
- James (10/5): - Property owner was very personable and professional. Large hanging baskets of petunias gave a welcoming and colorful expression.
- Fredrica (4/5): - It’s Ely so we weren’t expecting a prime room. But you could hear what went on in all the other rooms, toilet didn’t flush well, cheap tp, the frig made annoying noises all night long, not enough parking spaces. Overpriced for what is offered. Not going back or recommending — sadly.
- Jacquelyn (10/5): - Nice place!
- Dale (2/5): - The room smells like mildew, and the carpeting is wet.
- jonathan (10/5): - Really convenient. Awesome staff
- Pamela (10/5): 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.
- John (10/5): - Quiet, quaint place. Loved being able to park across 5he street and walk up to room. Decor looked dated, but in a good way.
- Kurt (8/5): - easy parking, friendly/effective check in, and located to most all things needed/wanted in Ely, MN.
- Rigoberto (10/5): - Stayed in family suite. 2 rooms with to queens in each. The living room is big and the couch turns into a bed for two. You could easily add another air mattress. Kitchen had everything you need. Pots, pans, coffee and more
- Martin (10/5): - Service was great. staff very friendly and cooks were fabulous.
- Kathleen (8/5): - Small business
- Kelley (6/5): - The motel has been updated and that was nice. However, the bedding is slippery and hot, stale smelling, and the towels were well used and stale smelling as well. Hard to get past the smell.
- Fred (6/5): Satisfied - Room very small but clean. Bed comfortable, nice linens & coverings…
- Sophia (10/5): - Really great place to stay especially if you want to be in the downtown of Ely! Everything is so close, and it’s such a cute and clean place!
- Marina (8/5): Nice place, fix heating in carpeted room - The family suite is an apartment above the check-in office. It is huge! It is very quaint and neat. We brought our dog and setup his kennel in the carpeted room that unfortunately didn’t have heating overnight. It didn’t help that temperatures dropped overnight…The rest of the apartment is very warm and cozy! Besides that, excellent place to stay in Ely!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Fantastic attention to issues. - We had a problem with the heat in the room. The owner quickly addressed this and gave us a new room. She even carried some of our bags to help us move. Rooms are a bit small, but expected. Overall, she went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Highly recommended.
- Jaye (10/5): We will Canoe on back again! - 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
- Debra (10/5): - The large 2 bedroom unit with kitchen was amazing. Spacious with plenty of room for our family. Close to snowmobile trails. Will definitely be back next year.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - What more could you ask for? Clean, comfortable and affordable. A base camp in town to plan, sleep and clean up in before and after your excursion.
