8/10 Very Good! (1,002 reviews)
The property is old. In my room, the bathroom door is falling apart. The construction outside is causing issues with incoming customers. The shuttle was supposed to leave for the airport at 10 till 5am and didnt leave till 5:15am. It was a little difficult finding the elevator...not marked real well. It is clean and the beds are comfortable.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,005 reviews)
We stayed for the night, the front desk were very friendly and helpful. Clean rooms, minimalist style, but the hotel itself has that vibrant, eye catching color, and the fireplace at the lobby is a nice touch. They even provided a cute little package for our pet, it was such a nice and thoughtful gesture. The only downside is parking, they only offer a loading and unloading areas, so you either find your own parking or you can use their valet service. It was not that bad as we did find a street parking for ourselves and gave us a chance to walk around the place. Bozeman is such a cute and charming town so make sure to walk around before tour next leg of journey.

The customer service was impeccable! The General manager was so kind and accommodating. I had a recent knee surgery and he personally helped me with my bags and getting my car. It was such a good experience.
