• Right off of highway, close to food & gas.
• Not just dirty-dumpy looks like people live there - long term renters, men working on their cars in the parking lot. No security doors/unlocked access.

“As a woman traveling alone on business I was very disappointed in the total lack of security in this building. When I arrived at the outside door to my corridor (at the back of the hotel) there was a sign for guests to swipe the room card for access to the building, not only was that, there was no device to scan my card but the door was open with no working locks. There was a man working on his car in the parking lot-wheels off, looks like it had been there for a while. The couple in the room across from me went in and out all night long in 20 minutes intervals and as I over heard them it sounded like they were long term renters, aka they lived there. The room was dark & dingy like an old trailer from the 70's and my lamp shade had stain on it. Also It did not look like anyone had cleaned the toilet since the last guest. I didn't feel safe here at all and was very disappointed in the filthiness of the room. I decided not to continue my stay at this facility and left after one day (I had booked it for 5). Oddly enough the lobby looked very nice and was recently remodeled, however the staff I spoke with upon check in was surly. Even at an economy rate, I did not expect the Ritz, but it should at least be clean and safe!”

“My sister and I stayed in this hotel on the night of August 9, 2009. We arrived very late, with an exhausted 5 year old and 3 year old. When I checked in, I asked if our room had 2 beds, since we had the kids, and this was met with a sigh, and I was told, "No, it's a queen room." This was changed for us, but we were then sent around to the back of the building. It seemed none of the lights in the parking lot were working, as it was very dark, which is not very comforting for 2 women traveling alone with 2 small children. When we entered our room, we pulled back the bedspread to find fairly fresh-appearing stains on the underside of the bedspread. We were too tired at this point to attempt to change rooms. We also heard noise from outside and the surrounding rooms. We did not use the shower facilities, as our previous discoveries left us rather discouraged about the cleanliness of the rest of the room. I sent this review directly to the hotel's email address provided on the website and have yet to get a response.”

• Clean but could use extra towels.
• Nothing.

“The staff was friendly but the hotel maids could try and clean the rooms better after the first night. We stayed 3 nights.”

• The bed was comfortable.
• The shower water was not hot and the room smelled musty.

“The receptionist was pleasant but could not multi-task at all (i.e. triage phone calls and help a customer at the counter) and she was inefficient. The hotel has a casino that smelled adjacent to the lobby and the room was musty. I would only rate this 1star.”

• Old texture on walls, hard beds.

“This is a older hotel undergoing renovations, hope they go the extra mile with the reservations.”

“I was extremely disappointed with this hotel, I have used Priceline and have always had a good experience except this time. This is a wolf in sheep's clothing. The carpet was coming off, the drapes could not open, there was urine on the tp in the bathroom,there was apiece of wood with plaster and dirt over the window to serve as a valance, the hallway wallpaper was torn and tacked on, the light switch was coming off, not the cover the light switch itself. If your interested I took pictures to send in to the Hotel and the better business department. It was horrible. The weekend before we stayed at the Best Western Kelly Inn ( another 2.5 star ) and the difference was night and day. I
highly recommend dropping the star rating on the Billings Hotel, it was disgusting.”

• Nothing.
• Most everything.

“When I checked in I was greeted. I was put into a room that was in a section of the hotel that was being actively remodeled. By actively, I mean the roofers were actually directly above my head with more tools and noise than you can imagine. There were no screens on the windows, so I was visited by a group of wasps, no doubt disturbed by the construction. The room smelled very bad. When I asked for a different room because of the construction, the first response was Oh, they should be done by 7. The second room while much better was situated facing the courtyard, there was a party function going on that evening. Overall, in the hundreds of hotels I have stayed, this was the worse, almost comically worse, stay of my life. The worst part is, this sounds like an exaggeration, and is not. It take a lot for me to complain about anything.”

“Easy access from the freeway. The room was like a refrigerator and the heater didn't work well at all. The lobby was very nice, we didn't use the pool but it had a cool looking water slide kids would love it.”

• The room was clean.
• We had to go outside to go to the pool not fun.

“The room was OK, the beds were uncomfortable and the shower was cold. I won't be staying there again.”

• Leaving.
• Everything about it.

“This is the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. The room was not clean and the heater did not work properly. Restaurant wait was excessive for there being no one there but us. The shower went from hot to cold and back again so you were either scalding or frozen. The lounge the first night was closed by midnight and the next night there was nothing but a stereo set to some rock station. We had friends recommend this hotel partly because we do not like to drink and drive and he told us they had karaoke or bands on the weekends in the lounge and we will be the first to inform that he was mistaken.”

• No lotion, small bathroom, didn't clean room.

“Nice hotel. Good size rooms. Right off freeway and close to restaurants, shopping and water park. rooms fine. Hard to get a response when we called with a complaint. Overall I would recommend this hotel. Oh, and the pool had water slides which you had to pay for daily to be able to go down them.”

• Nothing.
• It was trashy.

“I am so glad that u sent this review....this is not a 3 star hotel! I felt very ripped off when I got there because I knew that I couldn¿t get a refund and stay somewhere else. I was traveling with small children and felt very unsafe there. The rooms and bedding were so old! It smelled like smoke everywhere in the hotel. In the morning we had to walk far to the restaurant outside in the freezing cold to get to it and no one was there e to seat us for over 20 min! This hotel is a joke I would recommend taking it off the 3 star lists!! ”

• Room was not cleaned daily.

“This hotel is not good! The do not keep it up and is very run down. The bed was hard and the tub was black from all of the filth. My room was also not cleaned every day. I left at the same time every day (around 11:30am) and it was cleaned 3 of the 6 nights. ”

“This hotel was booked as the only 3 star hotel in Billings Montana. It should qualify No higher than a 1 star. We were terribly disappointed.”

• The front desk clerk was nice.
• The rooms were old and dirty.

“I would never recommend this hotel to anyone. The room was dirty (I couldn't tell if the sheets had been changed) and the bathtub was disgusting. The beds were so uncomfortable that nobody in our party could sleep. If we didn't check in at midnight and weren't leaving at 4 am. to catch a flight, I would have let them keep my money and stayed somewhere else. Overall, this place was pretty scary.”

• The management is trying to put some life back into this aged location.
• Caution, at check out they hit you with a energy surcharge, $2.75, not much but completely out of the blue.

“This location is lowering itself to tactics used at 1 and 2 star places to generate more income. The Carrier HVAC unit was very noisy when it would run and keep both of us up all night.”

• The lobby looked nice. The staff was friendly and helpful.
• Unsafe neighborhood. Outside entrances didn't lock. Noisy. Under construction.

“It definitely was not a 3 star hotel. I would give it a 2 at best. It was noisy, the outside doors did not lock, nor did they shut completely. It was in an unsafe area for walking. It was under construction, the rooms were old and worn. We felt that we overpaid for the quality of accommodations we received at this hotel.”

“Very poor. Staff asked how we had booked and gave us a VERY poor room. Bathroom doorway was about 20 inches wide. Obviously undergoing some kind of renovation but hard to tell what. Wouldn't recommend to anyone.”
