    Clean, older but in excellent shape with a nice pool and quiet AC. A seperate bath from sink. A table and two chairs with a desk also. Friendly staff. Comfortable beds and pillows. Fridge. Reasonable free breakfast options.

    I told my two boys, "we should try the "Thunderbird" on our way home" since we loved the colorful and old-school road sign and because it is centrally located in Elko. Sure enough, the property did not disappoint! The front office staff was extremely friendly and check in was a breeze. Clean room and bathroom and we watched the multiple cable channels on the flat screen. My two sons enjoyed the free wifi. I would stay at the Thunderbird again since we drive through Elko once/twice per year it was price conscientious, clean, and has a friendly staff. Thanks Thunderbird!

    Great customer service! The front desk staff works hard and is always so helpful. The hotel is conveniently located close to everything, which made getting around easy. Having laundry facilities and an ice machine available was very convenient. The pool and complimentary breakfast were also great additions and made our stay even better. Overall, a comfortable and enjoyable experience!

    Very clean

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Clean room but hard to climb thr stairs to second floor rooms, housekeeping staff likes to knock on the door way before check out kind of rude.

    I liked the pool. Did not like the bathroom sink faucets with missing screens causing major splash issue.

    Everyone here was nice and helpful. The room was large and accommodating as well as clean. My kids even had cable tv to watch on a large tv. The AC worked great. Check in and check out was a snap and there were no surprises. We will be staying again on our trip back through town. Thank you for the stay.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    There were a few stains on the carpet and the lamp shade was cracked (dated), but the bathroom was super clean, the towels and sheets were soft & fresh, staff was friendly, nice breakfast. It was nice to have a fridge/freezer as we had Cornish Pasties we bought and wanted to take home to family. We felt comfortable.

    Breakfast was good and well stocked with breakfast sandwiches (JimmyDean), yogurt, juice, waffles, cold cereal and fruit. No complaints! Easy parking even though the motel was full. Quiet and safe night.

    Overall good staff. Bed firm, uncomfortable for me but my husband slept well. Everything clean and tidy. Ice machine working. Coffee good, breakfast small but good. Very walkable area being right downtown

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    We'll be back. Pool looks like it has been dry for several seasons. other than that... I was impressed by the overall cleanliness. The breakfast options were good, but nothing special. Room was clean and well maintained. Location was excellent and parking was very good.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Negative: Vanity counter wasn’t cleaned -dried up lotion on the counter . Freezer had frost and crumbs - gave it the appearance that it wasn’t cleaned. Refrigerator racks appears too old - they’re cracked showing the metal that appears rusty. Fitted sheet had very light stain. Time to invest in a new toilet seat - clean but the white paint has been rubbed off giving it an unpleasant appearance Body lotion instead of body wash in shower -

    One thing I’ll say about this motel is the advertise two queen beds, but it was definitely two full beds. I would’ve never booked it if I known that, I measured them I know that.

  • Engine customer Jun 2026
