"Everything was clean, the bedding was very nice, bathrooms were very clean. When we initially went into our room, it smelled a little musty, but opened the window for a few hours while we were out and all good! That was the only reason for the 4 out of 5 stars. And the staff were great! Nice stay."

10/10 Excellent
"The Wren is exactly as described—a simple, beautifully designed hotel that encourages you to get out and explore Missoula! The rooms are modern with a charming Montana flair, impeccably clean, and mine had a cool street view. The staff were exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely accommodating. Their flexibility with a late checkout made my final day so much better! Valet service was seamless, and the complimentary access to a nearby gym was a lovely touch. The location is fantastic, within walking distance of great restaurants, including Plonk, which I highly recommend. Although the coffee shop isn’t open yet and amenities are limited, the little convenience store is wonderful. Despite uncooperative weather keeping me tucked up with takeout most evenings, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Missoula is spectacular, and I’d happily return to The Wren!"
