From the outside, I had low expectations. The parking lot, hallway, and stairwells define ordinary and aging. But the room actually had some touches that I appreciate: a 2nd private sink, plenty of square footage, and extra work/desk space. Our room was $64.95 (weekend AAA) with NO breakfast, but the cafe gave my husband 2 free cups of coffee. (We... more

Rooms: Definitely dated but not necessarily in a bad way. Ours were directly in the main building, outer drive up rooms may have been different.

Small fridge. Big retro... more

By far the best in Williston. Great service. Nice people. Super price. Clean rooms. Free wireless and wired broad band internet. Three restaurants. Meeting rooms. Smoking rooms, non-smoking rooms, pets ok rooms, no-pets rooms. Lounge. In other words a complete business and family hotel. more

I have stayed at the El Rancho many times over the last 20 years. It is simply the best in Williston and is heads and shoulders above all other hotels in Williston. Great staff! Very friendly! more

May be the best hotel in Williston. I have tried the Marquis and will not use them again as they do not hold a candle to the El-Rancho. For the money this is the best stay in town. Hands down more
