Fabulous space within walking distance to downtown! Excellent coffee/thrift shop right below the rental. You will hear the trains at night, which I loved, so not a bother. Lots of room and fabulous historical feel. Highly recommend for space, comfort and location.

Convenient location

The space was great and worked perfect for us. The coupling of the train cars across the street kept us up a couple times but after we got some earplugs it helped.

The property was well-situated for our purposes as we had an event just two exits away to easily-accessible I-90. The Coffee Shop at ground level was an added bonus. The train tracks…not so much but easily mitigated with earplugs. (Could barely hear slow-moving cars but the hookups were loud.) Would benefit from a thorough cleaning though basics were okay.

Missoula History & Nature

Lodging in an historic Missoula added to the charm of our visit. Historic details abound in this 2nd floor residence. There was plenty if room to spend time together or alone. The location is good for walking to many dining options. Hiking options nearby are plentiful as well as other entertainment choices.

Beautifully Restored!

This must be the most unique VRBO in Missoula. The building is incredible and it was such a a fun place to stay. There are three nicely furnished bedrooms, a well stocked kitchen, two full bathrooms as well as a TV room and front room with a second dining table. The space is huge with tall ceilings and beautiful skylights. It was convenient to be able to walk down to the coffee shop just downstairs in the mornings for coffee although there were many options for coffee in the apartment also. It was easy to walk downtown for the farmers market and to the restaurants and shops. Overall we loved this stay and wouldn't hesitate to return. I highly recommend this for anyone staying in Missoula!
