Comfort Inn Missoula near University

8/10 Good

"This was a comfortable place to stay for a modest price. Location near the university and walking trails was excellent!"

Garner Hotel Missoula Southwest by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"There was a take out container left in the fridge when I checked in, other than that the staff was on point when my rm didn't have any air/heater & moved me within minutes of me calling about it, the room was beautiful, the little perks were nice, breakfast was low-key lacking I felt, the orange juice was watered down sadly yet @ the end of the day I feel they made up for area's they were lacking, well worth the $$ & I'm definitely going again & I suggest checking them out for they're 5 stars."

Days Inn by Wyndham Missoula Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and cozy. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast is mostly muffins, cereal, and cereal bars, some fruit/yogurt, coffee.. but there is a Montana Wheat in the same parking lot with excellent breakfast pastries and lunch options. I highly recommend eating there. The room was quiet and perfect to stay in after the concert at the kettlehouse amphitheater."
