I booked this hotel because I had Choice Hotels points to burn, and the hotels in Elko needed more points than I had. What the heck, I said, it's just 20 miles from Elko and I'll just have a little longer to drive the next day. But I was not prepared for what Carlin is like. Let me say, first... More

Walking up to the front door, I noticed that the parking lot was littered with cigarette butts and all the landscaping was dead, so I didn't expect much inside. Went through the door and the place wreaked of smoke and I was about to walk out, but decided to check out the room first. We were exhausted and the room... More

We stayed here only because the hotel we'd booked in Elko was full, they had overbooked. At their recommendation, we stayed at the Carlin Comfort Inn. Upon entering the lobby we interrupted a transaction between the desk clerk and a clearly intoxicated young woman/prostitute, with a "customer" in tow, securing a room for an hour.

We stayed here instead of Elko because it was far cheaper (I cashed in a free hotel night) than hotels in Elko. There's nothing in Carlin, but we got dinner before we got here, so that didn't make a difference to me. Eat in Elko, though, if you're staying here. When we entered the hotel, the front desk clerk was... More

This was my absolute worst experience with ANY Choice Hotel I've patronized. I exclusively use them because I previously had nothing but positive experiences. The Comfort Inn at Carlin, NV should be sold or shut down if corporate can't fix the problems. The refrigerator in our room made an annoying loud buzzing sound all night, the guest dryer didn't dry... More

I have been driving a truck for 39 years. Other than vacations, this is the Best Hotel I have ever stayed in. Accomidatations and staff, 10 out of 10. More

Met basic criteria for Comfort Inn but common areas including front entry, hallways and elevator were filthy and needed maintenance, front desk staff disinterested, room dirty, and toiletries reused. With the general overall cleanliness issues we were not interested in the exercise facilities, or in eating here where the pickings looked pretty sparse anyway. Bed was good but too many... More
