Comfort Inn Missoula near University
Breakfast was great, location was very convenient to university and down town (have to drive but not far), train horn about every 4-6 hours wasn't great but tolerable, unfortunately took a long time for water to get hot on the top floor.

The Wren
Perfect spot to stay in missoula. Stayed for a concert at the Wilma, which was just walking distance away. Also close to lots of food options within walking distance. Room was nice and clean as well as a comfortable bed. Will definitely be my go to spot to stay for concerts here going forward

Parking should be free. It was a noisy property. Lots of loud stomping all the time above my room.
