The remodel of this hotel is very well done. I like the Montana feel and charm. The only complaint is the parking fee. Most people coming into Bozeman are going to need to park. It seemed a bit over the top.
We had to carry our suitcases upstairs to 2nd floor. No free coffee in the lobby. Decor was beautiful but why pay for parking when you have plenty of space in your parking lot?
My boyfriend and I absolutely loved this hotel! The staff was incredible, the accommodations were clean & adorably decorated, and the owner’s lab was the cherry on top. This hotel has the perfect, local & cozy feel, and it’s easily walkable to all the best spots downtown. I would highly recommend staying here & look forward to coming back.

The undisclosed $20 per night parking fee results in a lower rating
Great customer service, clean room, pet-friendly, easy walk or bike ride to downtown. It’s recently renovated and the aesthetic of the property is great. Love the outdoor seating area.
