The managers here at Townsite make staying here a joy! They are kind, courteous and have great sense of humors! They have nightly, weekly and monthly rates. The rooms are small but the price is right. I will always come and stay here at this motel when ever i visit Reno!

So expensive ! ! Especially for how big the size of the room is and it's maybe 450 SQ FT . But they got us in same day and utilities are included water , garbage , electric . Gas . . it definitely has the potential to be everything you want it to be. At least in my experience.
