It’s definitely an old hotel! Restroom is decent but the hotel needs a lot of upgrades. If they are wanting to keep it the way it is because they want it to look authentic then ok but at least upgrade the mattresses.

I loved the place, charming, until I had an "appearance" while sleeping. It was probably a dream, but it felt so real, even my dog got uncomfortable after I jumped out of my bed and ran to my husband's bed. It was a young girl with long hair and long pajamas. Other than that, it was a charming...if you're afraid of ghosts, don't stay here.

The room itself was impeccably clean and delightfully decorated with a western theme. Location is directly downtown in an area with great walking access to independent coffee shops, restaurants and shopping. The building itself could use some updating to carpet and common areas. There is no elevator for guests to access the second floor.

The lady who greeted us when we arrived was incredibly nice, the beds were super comfy, we stayed in a nice little 1 king room and it was just perfect. We were told of the $8 breakfast at their attached restaurant, and the food was delicious. My boyfriend got a very large and tasty breakfast burrito, and I got the French toast which was also great. Overall great experience!

Overall good little place to stay. Definitely dated decor but I like that (you even get an old fashioned metal key, not a card), but very reasonably priced. Unique little old school hotel with very handy courtyard parking. Attached restaurant serves a good, big breakfast for only $8. Room was clean and, as noted, dated but good. Was pretty quiet and felt safe despite this being pretty near the rougher end of town. As for staff, excellent, housekeeper (Clay, IIRC) was very friendly and helpful. Likewise Hillary at checkin at the front desk and Tracy when I was checking out in the AM. Will likely use again next time I am in Billings.
