The Missoula Val-U Inn never fails to impress. We started using the Val-U Inn because it was close to our motorcycle dealership. We come back because it's a quality motel at a very reasonable cost. Check-in was fast, easy and welcoming, warm cookies included. The rooms are always super clean, which is the Number One Must-Have for us. Our room... More

Obviously not a five star motel but you are paying $40 less than the other motels that are "fancier." The room was super clean. Rachel was wonderful both at reserving the room and checking us in. It is a standard motel room with an older tv but we never turned it on. The wifi was strong and consistent. My husband... More

Like others, I would describe this as a bit older, but that is not a bad thing. Seems it may have been part of a chain at one time. Great breakfast, I would rate it up there with larger chains that have serve yourself breakfasts, comfortable beds, friendly service, VERY good rate compared to other places. While not in what...

This motel is inexpensive and makes their guests feel quite welcome. It isn't the fanciest place, but a good breakfast, a fresh cup of coffee ready at any time of day, free WI-FI and freshly baked cookies in the afternoon. What more could a weary traveler want? A comfortable bed? Ours was a firm, but very comfortable bed.

I had initially booked for another hotel in Missoula but arrived too late, after the office was closed, so I had to find another hotel in the middle of the night. Fortunately I had a smartphone and a GPS to help me. Because of positive reviews, I chose Val-U Inn. Despite the late hour, staff was welcoming and helpful, so... More

Friendly service. Enjoyed the pancake machine at breakfast (first time we had seen that). Liked the cookies at the check-in desk. Could use a little updating. Right next to the mall. Wifi was unreliable (an important amenity for us). Found out at check out that we could have had the service rebooted, and it would have been improved. Would have... More

We stayed there overnight whilst having a short visit to Missoula. The room was spacious, clean and tidy, the hot tub was a pleasant surprise and the breakfast was amazing. The breakfast selection was very varied and it would be hard for anyone to find nothing to their satisfaction. We arrived in the morning after a cold overnight trip and... More

This was a last minute choice and it proved to be a good one. Service was friendly and the room clean and spacious. Breakfast was a standard continental one. There were some delicious cookies at the service desk, well worth the visit in themselves. Just don't park under the tree outside the entrance as it is used as a roost... More

I've stayed here twice and found it mostly fine. But the maid must have missed our room last night because there was cut hair (not ours) on the bathroom floor, and a used washcloth on the floor. These things can happen. I can overlook those little problems. We had a good stay and would go back.

I cant rate this place highly enough. We stayed in numerous hotels,b&bs and motels on this 2 week trip and this comes out top for overall service and what you got for your money. We were only passing through Missoula so I cant really comment on location. There are places closer to the highways so probably more convenient but I... More
