Small room, small sink, noisy room, lousy AC unit (wouldn’t stay on unless it was only fan). Breakfast only thing hot was waffles, and they ran out of spoons or last day. Overpriced. I got a gorgeous room up at Glacier NP for $100. This was a glorified motor lodge and it cost $170.

The only issue is that the doors are loose so every time someone opens their door in the hallway it shakes your door so getting sleep is off and on. They need doors that are stronger or have some kind of padding. You can actually see the light shining through your door from the hallway at night. Coffee was great!

It is a great spot to stay and is in a beautiful location. The staff were responsive, helpful and friendly. They have an outdoor fire pit on the roomy front deck and there is outdoor seating that has a Mountain View! Would definitely stay there again.

The mountain Vista is a gem! Great staff, clean, excellent continental breakfast and ideally, for us, away from the downtown area. We found the quiet location just outside of town nice and also convenient.

I’ve been traveling 3 straight weeks and have probably stayed in 15 different hotels in that time. I have NEVER stayed in a more unfriendly, poor customer service hotel. Checked in. Hardly a greeting, no conversation, didn’t even tell us about breakfast. Coke machine took $2.25…nope, we can’t help you, and we won’t put a note on the machine so it doesn’t take others money, too. Laundry was unavailable. Checking out- just look at me, take the key and say nothing at all?!! The front desk staff in the evening AND morning act like your business is a nuisance. So they won’t be getting mine anymore.
