Top Heart of Missoula Hotel Reviews

Brooks Street Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"The Brooks Street Motel is an older property with that 70’s feel. I’ve enjoyed staying here for the last 12 years. It’s clean and the staff are so nice and helpful. This is an affordable place to stay and I always sleep good!"

LivAway Suites- Missoula

8/10 Good

"Nice to stay in a nice new hotel. Over all had a nice stay. Very minimal, just linens and a bar of soap and shampoo. No coffee in the room. Thankfully I brought my blow dryer and didn't need an iron. I suspect you can request items you need, not sure, and for an extra charge some dishes. Large building being constructed on the north side, so no views and because we were there on the weekend construction workers were gone. So ask for a room on the southern side during the week. The fan in the bathroom constantly cycles on and off, and can still hear with the door closed, so that was a little bothersome. Nice location near lots of shopping and close to hwy and train tracks. Couldn't really hear the train when it passed threw though."
