“From its restored 1890s building in Great Falls' old town, the property stands apart with artist-designed rooms and its own art gallery feel; I noted the on-site pub and coffee bar too. It's a pet-friendly spot with secure parking, a rare combination indeed, so I think it could be a really good place to stay. Overall, this feels like a hotel that is more than just a place to sleep.”
