This was my second hotel of the week for my Billings, Montana stay. I arrived on Thursday and checked out on Saturday. I was able to park near the door which was a plus since it was raining the latter part of the week and it's a cold rain that falls this time of year in Montana. I was greeted warmly at the front desk and there were warm cookies on the counter. I was offered two bottles of water and I was quickly on my way to my room.
My room was clean and comfortable and I adjusted the bed all the way to the soft setting so I could snuggle down for the night. This seems to be a newer hotel and it was clean and the decor was attractive and inviting. There was always a fire in the fireplace in the lobby.
Since I am a Hilton Diamond member I received a free breakfast buffet. The first day I got my usual spinach omelet and it was huge. I couldn't finish it! Along with egg dishes that are prepared to order there were breads, yogurt, fruits, juices, etc. I will say that the fruits did not look like the fresh fruits I get at home in Florida. I did talk to some local people and I was told that fresh fruit in Montana is hard to come by out of season since it has to be shipped from so far away it just isn't really tasty or fresh by the time it is finally received in Montana.
I asked for a late checkout since I had an afternoon flight and I was given a late checkout with no problem or hesitation. I did take the hotel shuttle back to the airport and the shuttle driver was very personable. He talked about the town, told me about the weather and helped me with my bags. I was the only person on the shuttle and he acted like it was no problem at all to run the shuttle for just me.
I had a very nice stay at this hotel and I would recommend this hotel to anyone traveling, families, women traveling alone and business travelers. This hotel is near several restaurants and shops that are within walking distance so it is a convenient location.
