Hotel in zona Science Mine, Butte

We stayed here for one night on our way north. I used points and the required amount for one night was about twice what I needed to do the same thing two nights ago in Lamar, Co. I guess maybe because it’s tourist season? Both properties were very similar in amenities and quality so it wasn’t like Butte was a higher end hotel. This property is nice. Kept up reasonably well. Our room was clean and spacious though there were a couple of things missing. One was a small frig. That seems to have become almost standard any more. The prior two nights we had one and had just gotten used to it. The other thing was no USB ports. Those aren’t as common as the frogs but more and more places have them and should. Adding them is trivial in both cost and effort and who these days doesn’t use electronics and needs to charge them? But there were plenty of A/C outlets and we had our adapters. One other thing I’ll mention, though not an issue for us, is that we got a handicap accessible room. Ever since I travelled with my dad when he became elderly, I tend to notice things I never did before. Lie there was no seat in the shower and that’s important for someone that can stand for extended periods. The shower might be considered “walk-in” but there was a 2-3” lip that one has to step over to get in. That can be a big deal for some people. And the shower head was very high so unreachable by someone needing to hold on to a walker or that even is just short. The night previous, we also had a handicap accessible room and it had a zero-lip walk-in shower, a fold-down seat and a hand-held wand. Just things to consider if you’re either advertising a room to be handicap accessible or if you’re needing a handicap accessible room. Ok, back to the review…The room was fine. We slept well though the pillows were the extremely soft kind where your head just sinks down into it. We like those that are firmer and offer some support. Again, the last two nights, the places we stayed had one of each on each side of the bed so you could choose your preference. The breakfast here was the best of all the places we stayed on this trip. Coffee, two kinds of omelettes, bacon, biscuits and gravy, pancakes (make your own), cereal, bread, fruit, yogurt, juice, etc…And a nice large dining area. They also had newspapers available for anyone that wanted one. The people at the front desk, both on check-in and check-out were friendly and helpful. There’s always things that can be improved but overall, this was a good choice and I’d have no problem staying here on a future trip.

Il check-in mi è stato detto che non c'era acqua calda: in attesa di una parte per le riparazioni. Mi hanno permesso di fare il check-in nel loro hotel gemello dall'altra parte della strada senza costi aggiuntivi, anche se la mia prenotazione era prepagata e tecnicamente non consentiva rimborsi o modifiche.. Ovviamente ero entusiasta di avere acqua calda, pulita e tranquilla per la notte! Ottimo anche l'atteggiamento del servizio clienti in entrambi i posti!

We recently stayed for the night and while our experience was generally positive, there are definitely some areas that need improvement. The hotel itself has potential, with a convenient location and friendly staff who were welcoming upon arrival.My room was comfortable, but it was clear that some attention to detail was lacking. First, there were noticeable stains on the ceiling and the sofa, which gave the room a bit of a worn-down feel. This took away from the overall cleanliness and comfort. Additionally, there was no body wash provided, the container was empty. To make matters worse, the TV did not work. Overall, the hotel feels like it is in need of some love and refurbishment. With a few updates and more attention to room cleanliness and maintenance, this could easily be a fantastic place to stay. For now, it’s a good option if you’re not too particular about the details, but I hope they make some improvements soon

The room was very nice . The bed was comfortable and linen was in good condition. We had an interior facing room so it was very quiet . We didn’t try any of the hotel amenities since we checked in late and left early . We did try the free breakfast offering . We were pleasantly surprised the quality and variety of food available to choose from . We almost didn’t even go look since at most hotels it is an unpleasant ( gross ) experience. It was very clean in the food area and the food was good ( come on it is free and a buffet but it was actually good ! ) All the employees were very nice we encountered.
