Once quaint cabins now feel more like caricature of themselves. A bit overpriced for what other hotels cost in the area. While not on a strip of hotels, the location is not particularly walkable.

Our unit was not a cabin, but rather part of a triplex that was what looked like an old house that had been renovated. When you have a plug-in right beside your toilet and it’s not a ground fault and you have uneven floors where they transition from one to the other and improper transitions were used resulting in terrible transitions. The lighting in the rooms was poor. The Wi-Fi was not working, and this was blamed on the provider, which were not sure if this was the case or not. If you’re looking for an older place, that’s been renovated and this is the place for you but if you’re looking for something that should equate to the amount of money they’re charging this is not the place for you

Cozy cabins, great location

Easy to find, great location, cozy cabin! I did wish there was an extra blanket provided, that is a suggestion. The bathroom and bathroom sink are far from each other, not a huge issue, but just note that (not all units, just some). One of the outlets didn't work. Roku TV, some of the streaming apps work, others you would have to sign in your own account but we opted not to do that just in case). Key, info and wifi was waiting for us at 3 pm as said. Theres a key drop if leaving early like we did.

I have to travel to Helena monthly, Lamplighter is close to the VA Hospital and the cabins are quiet and most have a kitchen if you'd rather cook than eat out. Great prices

Accommodation was fine

Person at check in was not very welcoming or engaged and just rattled off the information as if memorized. Also, there was an additional $3 convenience charge, with no explanation. Accommodation was fine. I stayed at this before and people seemed very friendly, maybe the person was having a bad day.
