As mentioned by others, this place looks better from the inside than from the outside. Rooms are very spacious, clean, and comfortable in what I guess is intended to be a native American design. A full set of amenities (hair dryer, coffee maker, fridge, ironing board, etc.) is provided and the rooms appear to have surprisingly good sound insulation despite... more

We had to pass through Elko twice last month and decided to try this motel first and the Red Lion Inn on the return trip. The reviews on this site governed our choices. As others have commented, the Lobby and casino area are integrated, so the smoke and machine sounds are there. The check-in was smooth and the desk help... more

Good location off of I-80, friendly staff, clean and quiet room and a casino to boot! Food was ok, wait staff was shorthanded but it all worked out. Won $40 on the penny machines too!! more

We stayed at the Best Western Gold Country Motor Inn on Aug. 24th and 25th for a weekend trip to Elko, NV. We are the kind of couple who look for a room that is very clean, pretty modern, and has a certain charm that sets it apart from being a carbon copy of any other place. We are on... more

Good to the usual Best Western standard. This one had a lot of cigarette smoke smells... but then they also have a casino so I didn't mind. more

I've stayed here 3 times on business. The rooms are large and nicely-decorated with new furniture and bedding. Though the front doors open onto an outdoor balcony/sidewalk,... more

We decided to stay at this motel after reading the tripadvisor reviews and yes when you first go into the lobby you might wonder what you are doing, but it was a nice place. The room was very large, clean and modern. The casino is close by the rooms, but we did not notice any noise problems at night. The... more

My wife and I stayed at the Gold Country Motor Inn for 2 nights while visiting Elko. The Gold Country was a great experience. We had a small poodle with us and had reserved a "pet room" for our 2 night stay. The room was spotless, spacious and comfortable. The staff was friendly and very helpful. We would definetly stay... more

Stopped here with my family while traveling in April 2007. You are first struck by the small noisy casino as you enter the older building in search of hotel reception. The staff is friendly. Our family suite room was away from the main building, and was quiet and well furnished. There is a large lounge is connected to the casino... more
