Not the best

So to begin, I want to highlight everything good about this place. The building itself is very charming and cozy. The interior parking is very convenient. The onsite dining is great and the lobby felt very welcoming. The desk staff were very kind and helpful. The rooms are very cozy and have a historic and rustic feel to them which felt very nice. There is a lot of potential to this lodge. Now for the drawbacks. The room we stayed in could use some help. It needs a very deep cleaning and update. The mattresses were old and uncomfortable. There was something on the walls which looked gross. The cloth wall paper has got to go; not only is it unhygienic, it holds the moisture in the bathroom which does not have ventilation and they obviously aren’t being cleaned. The floor around the toilet needs fixed as it’s horribly cracked and lifted. Also, per building codes, any outlet in a bathroom has to be a GFCI outlet and it wasn’t. And although my sheets were clean, the decorative runner was definitely not as per the stains in the photos. I did choose to stay despite this, but I don’t think I will be back unless the owners overhaul their rooms and update them just a little. Cleanliness is crucial.

The location felt rather deserted until I drove to the inside courtyard. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The facility is rather old and dated. The breakfast was fantastic.

The carpet was very dirty and the nozzles in the jacuzzi tub should have been removed as they collected gunk.

This is my go to stay when you passing through Billings. It’s nothing fancy but it’s always clean rooms, good prices, nice staff. I’m a woman that travels alone a lot for work and I feel safe here. The breakfast is also delicious for a good price.

Staff was very nice upon check in, room was ok a little archaic (actual room key). Some of the other patrons were a bit sketchy. Feels like it should be in the $50-$60 a night range not $100.Its ok.

Unique western style hotel in downtown Billings. Still uses metal keys for the locks, and really cool decor style in the rooms and hallways. Pillows were not very comfortable on the bed, but everything else was good.
