As tourists we really appreciated the binder on the table filled with maps and attractions in the area. The proximity to historic downtown and to so many services was why we chose to stay here and we were super happy with that. The cozy atmosphere to come home to during the day was very much appreciated. When I return to Helena this is where I would stay.
The full brew coffee pot was a great way to start the day

This place was adorable and exactly what my pup and I needed in a long road trip! My only complaint is the window coverings were flimsy so they didn’t block out much light or provide enough privacy!
