We had a very disappointing experience at this La Quinta and will not be staying with the brand…read moreagain. After a long stay in a national park, we arrived around noon and understood it was too early to check in. My wife politely asked if we could use the gym while we waited, and the front desk staff member said no because we needed a key. I then politely asked the same question and received the same answer. When I asked if we could speak with a manager, I was told the manager was not there, with no other help offered. After explaining that other hotels on our multi-week road trip had easily allowed gym access in similar situations, and that the staff member could simply open the door for us, he eventually went to open it. Unfortunately, the gym had no working A/C, no way to turn it on, and the elliptical was not working. Later that evening, another front desk employee confirmed there was nothing they could do about the heat. The experience continued downhill at check-in. When we entered our assigned non-smoking room, it smelled like smoke, so I had to return to the front desk and request a room change. In the new room, the bathroom sink was clogged, adding yet another maintenance issue to the stay. The next morning, my key did not work for the gym. When I asked at the front desk, a different employee told me they normally leave a weight in the door to keep the gym open because of the lack of A/C. In other words, the initial insistence that "you need a key" was not really accurate, and the situation could have been handled much more reasonably from the beginning. We also replied to the hotel's own "reply to this text if you have any feedback" message and specifically asked that our concerns be escalated to management. No one ever responded. Because of this stay, I canceled another upcoming La Quinta reservation at a different location. The poor service, lack of management follow-up, smoke smell in a non-smoking room, clogged bathroom sink, broken gym equipment, and overheated fitness room made this one of the worst hotel experiences of our trip.

Oh Oh Oh - had to add... they have REAL toilet paper!…read more The room was nice, large & well-laid out. There was, thankfully, no carpeting & a surprise whirlpool. I'm not sure if that was an upgrade or if it was in the room details as this was another last minute booking while on the road. We thought it looked much better than we expected & were pleasantly surprised. We paid $235, after taxes/fees for the night, on the weekend before 4th of July. The parking lot was large - with limited lighting. Staff were friendly & welcoming. The included breakfast was, bad, really bad... yes, it's the same as all the other ones we posted but also it's not the same. There was 1hr left on breakfast & no attendant around, tho 2 staff did come & make themselves plates & leave. The potatoes were cold, as in not cooked through cold. The biscuit, yes, biscuit, because there was only 1, was so hard you couldn't cut through it with the plastic knife. Even the make your own waffle stuck so badly that it was a top & bottom scraped off - but that actually worked outvok cuz it melted the butter well. We ended up splitting a waffle & raiding our snack box in the truck a bit later. There were 7 coffee cups but no coffee (I did let the front desk know, as we watched 5 people try to get coffee to no avail) & no juice cups. The coffee cups ended up being used for the juice & when we left the breakfast area, there were no cups & still no coffee. We brought our own coffee cuz we're snobby like that, but I know people (self included) get really moody without their bean water. In short, this was our favorite room of the entire 3 state trip & also the most inedible food. I'd absolutely stay again but perhaps plan to find breakfast elsewhere or bring something with.

I'm pretty loyal to my normal hotel brands but we decided to stay at the Kimpton Armory Hotel…read moreBozeman because we got a good offer through my credit card. To be quite honest, I don't think I'd stay here again when in Bozeman, depending on the circumstances. The hotel is nicely situated near Main Street and is an easy walk to many of the shoppes and restaurants in the area. Checking in was fairly easy and the person working the desk was extremely informative and friendly. The lobby was decorated nicely, with plenty of seating. It was strange that there were just stairs up to the front door, the accessible entrance was all the way around the building. We checked out other areas by the lobby. You can walk up to the balcony of the theatre and take a look at it from there. It was being decorated for Nutcracker brunch so it was super cute when we saw it. We visited the restaurant and both the bars. We also joined the social hour a couple of times. The social hour is great and I appreciated that they did this. We went up to the pool but didn't swim. It was nicely heated so you could be in it year-round. Our room was clean and smelled nice when we entered. The bed was comfortable and clean. We were on the 8th floor so there were no people sleeping above us so it was nice and quiet after the bar closed. For some of the flaws, I booked a mountain view and would not do that if staying here again. The train horn was super loud and went on all night. The shower leaked and the water landed on the huge metal plate over the drain. It was the loudest thing ever and we ended up having to put a towel in the shower to dampen the sound in order for us to sleep. Also, the fire alarm had a really erratic light that made no sense and sometimes lit the whole room up in an eerie green light. These flaws were fairly manageable. The worst thing (and the reason I might not stay in this hotel again) was late check out. They do it "first come, first serve" here, meaning you have to call around 7am to try to get a late check out, which is just given to you, no question about WHEN you need to check out. We decided to just hang out at the airport for the rest of our time because our late check out was just one hour. They also don't preemptively re-key your card, you have to wait until you can't get into your room anymore.

We were unsure of this motel as we were planning our anniversary celebration, but we are so pleased…read morewith our experience here that we'll definitely be back again. I called the motel on the day of check in as we were running behind schedule. I was assured we were assigned a room, and would not get the last available room (sometimes that happens and the room ends up not being what was originally booked). I asked about extra blankets available at check in. Lisa, the hotelier, offered to have one put in our room before we arrived so we wouldn't have to worry about waiting for it once we checked in. Once we arrived, we were greeted as we entered the lobby. Currently, it is decorated in a Halloween theme, and very thoughtfully done. We were issued metal keys for our room....nice touch. We entered our room and weee greeted by soft classical music and a comfortable 70 degree room. The carpet is clean, laid on top of thick carpet padding...another nice touch and easy on bare feet. The bathroom is likely original to the building but was very clean. We didn't think much of the mattress until we realized our bodies didn't hurt when we woke up. We forgot our swim suits so weren't able to test the water, spa, sauna etc. They do sell swimwear in the lobby but we opted against it. The continental breakfast is worth taking advantage of, consisting of home made banana bread, which is quite tasty. Coffee, tea, milk, water (I am a water snob and I filled my travel thermos every morning and night straight from their ice machine), yogurt, oatmeal and a few other items were available for us to eat. And the infused water....Lisa makes it fresh daily and it is amazing! Don't let the age of the motel steer you away. While it was build in the late 1970's it is well kept and has a lot of charm. Lisa and her husband are wonderful people whose goal is comfort for their guests.

Last year during my visit, we were shopping at the Co-Op next door, and I said, I'm going to run over and peek at this pretty Motel next door. It surprises you. I made reservations for the next year, and got to spend a few nights here 2 weeks ago. The lobby is just lovely. Lisa served up a somewhat continental-style breakfast. It was just perfect, with everything you need to get your day started. I grabbed my breakfast, sipping my hot tea, reading the newspaper, chatted with some of the guests, and soaked in every minute of my morning. In the afternoon, Lisa lays out other snacks and always has a nice fruit bowl. The downstairs pool, hot tub and spa area are worthy of a Four Seasons. One afternoon, I walked to the downtown area to shop and explore. It was just a few blocks away, an easy walk. My bed was delightfully comfortable, and my room was clean and well-appointed. I felt safe throughout my entire stay here. I woke up, looking at the Majestic Mountains every morning. What a view. When you call, ask for Lisa (the owner's daughter). Her Dad/family has owned this establishment from the very first day it opened its doors. Thank you Lisa and all the staff at the Lewis & Clark. Everything was just wonderful. I will be back. I love supporting local businesses. This is a gem!

Just check out my pics... clean, adorable, comfortable!! Beds were great. I did get a suite so we had extra room, and it's probably the only room I would rent again as it is so absolutely lovely. Vintagey and mid century modern I cannot get enough of it. Tiny details everywhere you look. Staying for only one night is tragic, and I might cancel our 5 star hotel anniversary celebration last day of vaca splurge stay next week when we fly home just to stay here again. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Price is a little bit high but I think that's everywhere these days right but so worth it. Little bit of street noise but honestly nothing to really mention but I didn't hear any neighbors, not sure if that is the usual or not but I was extremely satisfied and happy and hope when we return I have the same experience. Be warned the cafe attached makes the parking lot completely full but it clears out after breakfast at least it did on a Saturday so not sure how that works for guests if they can't find parking! SIMPLY THE BEST.
