You have no control over the temperature in your room & our room was freezing. They also used some kind of really strong air freshener or cleaner & I was sick from having to smell it all night. I know it's an historic place but it just smelled old & musty everywhere. I will not be staying there again.

The Dude Rancher is a great choice in Billings if you’re looking for a hotel with old western charm and reasonably priced. The room we had was clean and quiet with a very comfortable bed. The only minor issue was the toilet would run (stopped by fiddling w/ handle). Probably the best amenity is the $8 dollar morning breakfast. The dining area is great and the four menu options are awesome. Poor Tina had to work hard to keep up with all the hotel customers. One other recommendation for the hotel is to put some ash stray stands outside the rooms and sweep up the cigarette butts. Nothing against smokers but it takes away from the cleanliness feeling. All in all, fun place to stay in downtown Billings.

Hillary at the front desk was so friendly and helpful when checking in to our hotel room. She asked for my name and handed my husband 2 keys to our room on the ground floor, which we so appreciated because we're both in our mid-60s and we don't like climbing stairs! The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom is a little on the small size but we managed to get around anyway. The morning breakfast was splendid and large portions of hash browns, 2 eggs cooked and any way you want, 3 slices of thick bacon, and 1 sausage, and 4 choices of bread/toast. All for $8! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again for the price.
