Super cute hotel! Just a short walk to downtown Bozeman. Reasonably priced rooms. Super sweet interior design, and pet friendly! Just wish they had finished the renovation the gym and hottub - but it was ok because they were able to give us day-passes to a local gym which was awesome! Would stay here again for sure!

The room was very clean, and we loved the lobby and room décor, as well as the espresso machine. However, if you’re looking for a quiet stay, this might not be the best choice. Our room was on the second level, and the walls were very thin, we could hear the TV from the neighboring room, their 5 a.m. alarm, and even most of the footsteps and occasional jumping from the room above us.
