Ski's Western Motel

We were switched from Ski to Central motel. Central needs a bit of exterior work but the room was good for the value. It was clean and suited our needs for our 2 night stay. Central location in town and everyone was very nice.

I felt very safe staying here with my family of 4. We are on a budget and this was the best rate we could find. AC was great, microwave, fridge with a freezer. Spacious room with 2 queen beds, table with 2 chairs. 2 dresser drawers. Morning coffee, coconut water, apples, and croissants. Desk staff was so friendly and informative, he was just lovely to talk with. I would stay here again. Only downside was the shampoo and conditioner (I would bring your own). Location was great. Of course it's an older place but everything worked and was clean.

Room was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful, but the room in need of repair.

Roach motel for price of hotel. Cleaner worked his ass off.

The check in guy did not speak English so he was very hard to understand. He did not have our reservation. He did still have a room available though thank goodness. The room was not clean we had to go track down a broom to sweep it and then we still did not walk around barefoot. It was a little scary and the room next to us had people coming and going all night knocking on the door!

When I came into the front office, I handed my reservation paper to the person, and he took a look at my reservation papers. He suggested I to call ******* because he wanted to know how much the rate for the room. I am deaf, and I didn't have time to call *******. Based on my observations, I didn't see the personal computer and the credit card system at the front desk except for room reservation papers. I was so disappointed and frustrated. I walked out of the front office and left. However, I came to Great Falls from Missoula to attend the Montana Association of the Deaf 51st biennial conference for this weekend as the secretary of the statewide organization of the deaf. I explained my situation at Ski's Western Motel to these deaf registrants and some officers of Montana Association of the Deaf. Fortunately, one of the officers offered me to stay overnight at her house which was so sincere and kind enough to alleviate my anger and frustration toward the gentleman at the front office. I didn't pay any cash or hand my credit card to the gentleman. However I already made my online reservation via ******* with my credit card before coming to Great Falls from Missoula, MT. After having some kind of calamitous experience at the motel, I made my own decision not to make any reservations at this motel ever again. I prefer to make reservations at either O'Haire Motor Inn in downtown Great Falls or Holiday Inn Great Falls where I have pretty good and positive experiences in my past.

The concierge was rude. The bathroom was dirty
