    Pros +

    • It was the only one close to the train station
    • The kitchen these guys can cook anything it's expensive but it's worth it. Guaranteed guilt feelings after you get done eating it.
    • Nice staff, good location and fair price.

    Cons -

    • I was given an outside room. There was only one lock on the door and it was one that could be opened by hotel staff. The room was on the bottom floor with a large window looking outside. I was not at all comfortable with the safety of this room. I
    • The attitude of some of the waitresses in bartenders.
    • The room had an old smell but being from there I know the age of the hotel. The rubber on the bottom of the outside door was broken allowing sunlight in, this could create problems with mice, bugs, etc. TV remote only worked for volume & channels.

    Beautiful lobby and friendly staff. The room was large and nicely decorated. Everything was spotless and comfy. The adjoining restaurant was fabulous and fun. Definitely one of the best stays ever. (We were in the main building right off the lobby.)

    Not a thing

    It was nice and quiet

    45 minutes left for breakfast and there wasn’t much left. Just biscuits, waffles and bread.

    9MarshaPosted on: 10-30-2025

    Very clean and staff very accommodating. Restaurant food was above average.

    8JenniePosted on: 6-17-2025

    Staff were super friendly. The attached brewery/restaurant was great. Room was large. Hotel was close to amenities.

    10PoolePosted on: 5-26-2025

    The room was huge! Very clean except outside the door was a lot of cigarette butts. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room. I would stay again.

    Nothing that I can really think of.

    Good for one night. Bed and pillows were good. Breakfast was barely ok. Needs. Outdoor remodeling. Locat good. Employees in morning were nice but could wear clean clothes.

    Breakfast. Outside decor.

    Pictures online gave me a different impression. The two rooms I booked were dusty and smelly, carpets were all stained and full of pets' fur. The bathroom was not cleaned, shower curtain all stained, too. Both freezers had leftover liquids frozen.

    Nice large room. Friendly staff.

    Room was filthy.

    4MichaelPosted on: 4-10-2025

    Not able to have the breakfast. Clerk was friendly.

    1. When I arrived lobby coffee was cold. 2. I was given a room that was occupied and I walked in on a guest in bed sleeping and scared the hell out of him. 3. My bathroom floor was dirty and gritty. 4. One bed looked like someone had laid in it.

    7AshleyPosted on: 2-17-2025

    Comfy big room

    Couldn't use bathtub only could shower and the water pressure wasn't very good and water wasn't very warm

    Comfortable bed Williston brewery Location near convenience

    1st room was not acceptable cleanliness

    7JasonPosted on: 12-6-2024

    Comfortable bedLarge room

    The bathroom floor was really bad. I could see boot prints from the previous tenantWe usually enjoy the breakfast in the morning, but the room location was on the outside and on the 2nd floor, so we didn't even bothet.

    8RojasPosted on: 12-4-2024

    Rooms are spacious

    Carpets have stains, fridge dirty and breakfast is not great

    9HollyPosted on: 11-11-2024

    The lobby was very nice and the staff made me feel welcome. Great location. The room was super quiet with very comfy beds.

    The room that they gave me first was still occupied. The carpet in the room was in need of a good vacuum.

    5SarahPosted on: 10-22-2024

    Staff was friendly and helpful. Free breakfast. Quiet. There's a restaurant with a bar attached to the hotel.

    The floor was not vacuumed. Pillows too thick- would be nice to have a variety. Having a room with an exterior entrance was not ideal. The rooms don't have a consistent feel. They vary in size and some are nicely updated whereas others are not.. People in our party had mixed experiences. Interior room had better bathroom lighting, one exterior room was not cleaned well at all and did not have a hair dryer. Better to get an interior room if you can.

    good air conditioning, nice comfortable bed
