I've tried the other motels in DL with poor results. The wifi at Western Big Sky does not work very well, so it is out. Budget Inn has great wifi, and the rooms are ok for the low price asked. I would stay there again. I think it's the best you can do in DL, which I'm afraid is not... More

I stayed at this place before and it was a bit shady. The room seemed very dated and the staff was not very professional. It was however right next door to a restaurant and that was convenient. I would only stay at this place if all the others in town were closed. Or, I would stay in Anaconda or drive... More

This motel would have been ok, if it was not for the very noisey plumbing, every time some one flushed the toilet or run the tap's the noise was quite bad, and after travelling all day, the one thing you need to do is sleep, the location was very good, and the restaurant next door was very good, we had...

The floor in the room was so dirty and stained I would not take my shoes off. I realize this is a cheap hotel but that is not just in the price. A week after we checked out my card was hit with a $250.00 fee for ruining a mattress. when I called to inquire about the charge all she... More

OK. This is a cheap hotel. NOTHING fancy. You definitely get what you pay for here. The rooms are passable. No gross out anywhere. The breakfast should be passed over and get your food eleswhere. If you need to economize, you can stay here, but that is the only reason why you should. It is what it is.

OK...so this isn't the Hilton, but what the heck do you expect when you're on the road far removed from any urban areas!? We found the Budget to be exactly what one would expect for a town like Deer Lodge.....in fact even better. It was older.....but clean, freshly painted and well appointed (even had little toothpaste squeezies!). The air conditioner... More

We couldn't sleep here, finally just left. It was supposed to be a non smoking room, the blankets on the bed had cigarette burns, as did the floor. The neighbour's snoring was so clear it was like he was in the room with us. The bathroom was atrocious, I would not have used the shower with flip flops on, it... More
