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.

A beautifully renovated hotel with a nice Boutique feel! Right on Main Street in Bozeman… quick Lyft rides to all shops and restaurants. Or use the free bikes for a 1/2 mile ride to all the fun spots! Cozy, quiet rooms. Plenty of space to lounge in lobby or outside around the fire pit! Great for 1 night getaway or stay a week if you’re in town for an event or skiing, hunting!

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.

Very nice check in staff, and a very cute property. Parking is $20 a night, but I am not from the area so this might be normal. The blackout shade they have in the rooms is no joke which is a perk. Downtown is within walking distance so plenty to do.

We loved this new hotel so much for its charm and the free bikes we were able take into town .. there was an issue with our bedroom AC over-heating and turning off at night. My husband had to wake up and turn it back on. We also had a drain in the sink that was draining super slow and maybe needed an adjustment. Overall wonderful.. will stay here again! Nice fire pit, nice bikes, nice stafff ❤️
