Welcome to Merry Wink

A place that feels like a hello, not a transaction.

We're not a big-chain hotel with a clipboard and a rush. We're a small, family-run motel right off South Virginia Street — the kind of place where regulars know your name and the coffee's always on.

Whether you're here for a convention at the Reno Events Center, a weekend at the race track, or just a quiet night on the road, we'll make sure your room is spotless, your bed is soft, and your stay is stress-free.

Guest Stories

What people say after a stay.

"We stumbled upon this place on a road trip and were so glad we did. Clean, quiet, and the owners were incredibly kind. Felt like a real home away from home — not just another stop on the map."

Margaret T. Traveling from Arizona

"I stay here every time I'm in Reno for work. It's always spotless, the parking is a dream, and you can actually sleep through the night. That's all I need — and that's exactly what I get."

David R. Regular business traveler

"Had a last-minute cancellation and needed somewhere to crash before an early flight. Merry Wink saved us. Super reasonable, super clean, and the family running it made us feel so welcome. Will be back."
