Ely Stay

The accomodations were very nice, clean and adequate for the one night stay we wanted. It was a bit smaller than what I envisioned as there was no "living room" area. The bathroom was very nice, but small. But I rather "very nice" over anything else. The towels were so soft!!!

What makes this property unique

This cozy space, approximately 700 sq ft, features two bedrooms and a compact bathroom. However, it lacks a kitchen and does not have a formal door separating the bedrooms, which might not be ideal for families with young children.

Despite these limitations, the location is highly convenient, with local coffee shops, restaurants, and shopping within walking distance. Additionally, the Ely Dairy Queen is conveniently situated right next door
