The Rodeway Inn Elko Downtown Area is an older motel that provides a generally good room for the price. Reviews consistently note that the rooms are clean and spacious, with specific praise for the nice, big showers, some featuring rain shower heads. The refrigerators in the rooms are highlighted as a particularly good feature, being full-sized with a separate freezer. The front desk service is repeatedly described as excellent, very helpful, kind, and super sweet, with staff accommodating early check-in requests. However, the experience is mixed with several notable drawbacks. A significant and common issue is noise; the walls are described as paper thin, allowing guests to easily hear activity from adjacent rooms and the corridor, which can disturb sleep. The location is semi-quiet with minimal traffic, but nighttime noise from other guests can be a problem. Some rooms can become quite hot, with air conditioners that struggle to cool effectively for hours. Other minor inconveniences include occasional non-working lamps, a strong chemical scent from cleaning products, a weak Wi-Fi signal in some rooms, a tight parking lot, and a very small continental breakfast. A specific point of contention for some is a perceived excessive pet fee. Despite these flaws, many guests find it a great overnight stay, emphasizing its value compared to other motels, and state they would definitely return when traveling through Elko.
At first it did not look attractive from the outside but once checked in the room was really descent. It was dated but clean and very spacious. Good for one overnight.

This has been the finest stay on the last day of a 20 day cross country road trip. The man at the front desk was kind and helpful. I got a very affordable room with great A/C , a comfortable bed and shower. Breakfast was perfect and open at 5am. It’s super conveniently located too. I will be back !
