9/10 Wonderful! (552 reviews)
The room was clean. The mattress was firm. My only complaint is that the bed frame stuck out beyond the mattress, and due to the narrow space between the bed and the dresser I kept bumping my shin or toes on the bed frame. Otherwise I had a great stay.

Ely was awesome! I haven't been there in over 40 years. There was so much more there than I imagined there would be! I loved the shopping, the museums, and the art galleries. It's a really cool place.
