Good

When first arriving at the facility the location looks kind of deserted. A sign on the door tells you to check in at the grocery store next door. The check in process however is smooth and the staff very friendly. The room turns out to be spacious and clean, with good beds and good shower. All together a very good experience
Room comfortable. Bathroom very small, tight quarters. Neighbors were noisy during our stay, but maybe someone else won’t have that. The room was clean and warm.
A basic motel conveniently located to town- very walkable. Motel is old and rooms were small. Bathrooms are outdated and tight. 18 min to Two Medicine Lake and 40 min to St Mary. The folks are friendly and knowledgeable about things to do/see.
Basic room for one night. Bed, TV, fan, towels and bar soap. No extras like shampoo or hair dryer. Clean. Bed was comfy. Close to main road and traintracks but was not noisy. Relatively close to East glacier which is why we chose it.
Wonderful place! The room was spacious and clean. Retro but cool and well maintained. My husband and I just stayed the night but we slept great and walked down the street to the Two Medicine Grill for breakfast. East Glacier Amtrak depot is just across the road/tracks.
We always play a sound machine app on my phone so noise is rarely a problem.
The towels were nice which is my positive comment. All appliances are plugged into a sngle outlet...very unsafe. No air conditioning and no safe way to leave windows open

This is a very small unit with a single double bed & a tiny shower. The proximity to Glacier National Park was our reason for staying there, so it worked for us.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The bath was so small that you could barely turn around between the sink and commode. The soap was the size of a 50-cent piece. There were huge, thick cobwebs in the corners; the noise from the frequent Amtrak train was loud. The towels were nice and changed each day.
A charming little place with a log cabin feel to the interior with pine walls and ceiling. Beds are comfortable, shower good. Fluffy towels. Direct TV and WIFI. It’s an easy drive into the east side entrances to Glacier National Park: Two Medicine, St Mary, and Many Glacier. For us that was the far better side of the park because it’s less busy.
We had a 2 room suite with kitchen. It was very clean and in excellent condition. Owner/manager is friendly and helpful. Bed was a little soft for my husband & I but we both have bad backs and had been in the car all day. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

Place is good for what is in the area. Could use some sprucing up but is quaint and rustic. It also appeared to be clean which is what we care about. Full kitchen and looked like it had essentials for cooking-we just needed a place to sleep. We were in unit 1 next to the road-no AC so with windows open, you hear the trains and traffic all night. Not a lot of traffic. Mattress needs to be changed. Parking is tight.

Owner was friendly and his service was good. Rustic room, reminded me of the camping cabins that we have at Minnesota state parks. Needs new carpet, but everything else was fine. I would stay there again.
Was better than we expected for the price, was old, one room didn't have a door, but beds were comfortable.Great for the price to sleep right outside Glacier park and get up early to go adventure again.
If you want a place near GNP, its super close to Two Medicine and about 35ish minutes from Going to the Sun. It looks sketch from the outside, but its large and nice on the inside. Has stores and restaurants right next door. And a yummy coffee (to-go)spot that opens at 6am. Worth the money I spent. The train can be loud if you are not use to noises and the Guests can be loud outside but in all its a nice little spot.
Stayed here for three nights while visiting Glacier National Park. East Glacier is a small little town. Several restaurants within walking distance and a small casino. The Amtrak station is across a street. Rather rustic and basic but able to get a good night's rest. The heater worked great considering the weather is getting colder now.
