The property is surrounded by the homeless. I had to walk through several to try to check in. The photos of the property are very outdated. There are broken windows, restaurant is closed, fireplace needs cleaning and not lit, whole building is old and out dated. I cancelled my reservation and left. I had no idea it was a drive up motel. Disappointed!

I didn’t realize this hotel was haunted until I got online and accidentally stumbled upon articles that talked about its history. The staff was nice and the $10 pet fee was a plus! They don’t charge a pre authorization which is also nice. The room was clean although there was pubic hair on the toilet seat and there were some burn marks in the carpet. The beds and pillows were clean and comfortable for the most part. The walls are thin and I was woken up a few times because of other guests being loud and doors slamming. I won’t stay here again but it honestly wasn’t bad for the price and the hospitality was good.

We have stayed here several times now and have for the most part enjoyed our stay. This time however, requested the King bed instead of the usual Queen. The king bed was rather uncomfortable and the room smelled dusty. Think it’s time for a new mattress and a carpet cleaning.

Very reasonable price and clean rooms. The 24-hour staff at the front desk is extremely helpful for potentially late arrivals, and they are always friendly and helpful. The room had a dark window shade to block outside light for easier sleeping, and they allow patrons to leave their vehicles parked in their lot for free instead of parking at the airport. No shuttle service to the airport, but the hotel is only a few minutes from the Billings, MT-Logan International Airport so a cab/Uber ride is more affordable than airport parking lot rates. Definitely worth staying here!

Amazing in a surprising way!

Old time Charm with new age upgrades!! I loved it here!! The Building is original to the City, so it does have limitations, but the People, lay out and court yard make up for everything and more!! The first floor rooms have an indoor and outdoor exit- Super convenient for loading and unloading the car, but you can also walk inside all the way to the restaurant and front desk. Its designed to look like a hotel from an old western but the beds are SO comfy, walls, carpets and curtains and bedding are new. The bathroom sinks are WILD and come with a story that is amazing. Each room has a different color sink from the 60's, they remodeled around the wild sink colors!! Mine was Orange lol !!! Directly beside the wild sink is a brand new jacuzzi tub with all the good jets- this was in a standard budget friendly room, I was speechless with the extras!! Check in was a DREAM! Both The manager and desk lady were so friendly and talkative and helpful! I love that the Keys are real metal Keys still with a comically huge Key tag!! Love it! I don't have much need to go to Billings MT, but honestly I may plan a vacation soon around this Lodge just to relax and hang out with Fun down to earth people. Thank you Dude Ranch Lodge for the best secret surprise get away, hidden in plain sight.

Avoid this place at all costs unless you want to sleep in a sauna. Thermostat in my room was showing 82 degrees and heat blasting. AC won’t turn on because it’s winter. Reception told me to just turn it off - which I did, and the heater is still pumping out 82 degree air. Hotel is not full, you would think there would be a functional room available but you would be wrong. Horrible experience.
