For an older establishment it is well taken care of. The staff is very friendly & responsive. Pretty quick access to several restaurants. It would be nice if they had a closer pet area. Our little dog is 16 & doesn’t walk far any more. I would absolutely stay here again. Great value for a clean place to stay.

The room was a good size and the water pressure was good but besides that i did not enjoy this hotel. It was outdated and smelled weird. The sprinkler system looked corroded and the beds were very uncomfortable.

The pictures look nice, but here's the truth. This hotel is straight out of the 70s. It is in desperate need of an update. The curtains, carpet, popcorn ceiling, and furniture are severely outdated. It looked like the windows had never been cleaned, and the original 1970s bed skirt was ripped and stained. Curtains were stained, ceiling and walls had stains and water damage. The wallpaper was bubbling up and peeling off due to water damage. The AC only ever kicked on for 5 seconds at a time and was rattling when it did. Black hairs in tub and on towels we were provided. Two campers and a Penske truck stayed outside our room, with people living inside of them. When most of Billings was nearly fully booked, I believe we were one of 6 rooms in use at this hotel. I chose it because of the decent reviews, free parking, and free breakfast. But after seeing the property and the "breakfast," I wish I would've chosen somewhere else. We didn't even bother to try with the breakfast but instead grabbed our stuff and checked out ASAP in the morning and grabbed breakfast at Stella's. This might be a decent place if they put some money into updating it. The outside of the property is just dirt, gravel,

While the hotel is going through a remodel, so i understand a bit of disorganization. The room wasnt the cleanest, in that it hasnt been occupied for a minute so there was dust and a leaky faucet. It was comfortable, though! And the staff were an ABSOLUTE delight. Tyler checked us in, and Ive never had a kinder or more informative desk attendant. He was THE BEST. The lady and gentleman in the moening were just as nice! They really made the stay pleasant.

It’s was ok, not great but better than motel 6. The bed was a bit rough. No black out shades in the room so you will be getting up at sunrise. No cleaning service and I was there for four nights. Staff was friendly tho.
