Basic hotel. Guest laundry provided free which is very nice. No elevator. They had assigned us a room on the third floor. We’re retired (older). They wouldn’t change us to a lower floor because we had booked thru Expedia. If they don’t want you to book thru Expedia why were they listed there?

The bathroom wasn’t clean, there was hair in the bathtub and the toilet paper disintegrated in my hand when I tried to wipe after doing my business. There was also a leak in the sink. The AC took 19 years and forever to start working.

Expedia shows location as Gallatin Gateway. It’s actually in Big Sky - about 30 miles further south. That worked out fine for us but the additional distance was unexpected.

There is no elevator in the hotel and we had to carry our luggage up the stairs. The room was old and dingy. The bathroom fixtures were rusty.

Outside steps to building entrance was roped off and you had to walk around thru the grass. Room had lots of nicks and scapes on the walls. Nothing and I mean nothing hanging on the walls. Heater made a noise like a bird was giving birth or about to mate in our room. Manager hit the unit a couple of times then offered to bring us a space heater. The space heater worked just fine. It was clean and the front desk clerk was informative and polite. The room was almost $200 and I felt overcharged for the condition of the room.

My son and I were completely bummed out that the pool and waterside were not open. I had received communication at the time of my reservation booking that the pool area would be closed for maintenance until mid-Oct which was fine because our reservation wasn't until the end of Oct, but the work was running behind on their timeline so it was not open and we didn't receive any communication about that. So you can imagine our disappointment when we arrived and the pool area was closed. This is the ONLY reason why we booked this property for a overnight getaway for my son and myself. All of this could have been avoided with one more communication from the property with an update.
