Very impressed with site and have stayed a few times in history past. As a former soldier I appreciate the unmeasurable respect given making my Lazy J stay assessment is "Incredibly Veteran friendly". Everything was a smooth transition and definitely very user friendly.
Having to leave that comfortable bed seemed to be a bit of a challenge

We stopped overnight as we came from BC and wanted a place to crash before moving on to Calgary. When we arrived we were greeted by the owner. He was very friendly and helpful in suggesting where to get food as it was already 8 PM. We were pleasantly surprised at the size and cleanliness of the room. We had a wonderful night's sleep on the king-size bed. We were met with excellent water pressure and abundant hot water when we showered in the morning. The continental breakfast had lots to offer. We will be staying there again when traveling through.

This was by far one of the best and my favorite overnight stays. The room was fantastic and perfect for my family. We drove 13 hours and arrived later then closing check in time but the gentleman waited for us to arrive. Great customer service, very friendly and the breakfast spread was the best of any hotel/motel we've ever stayed at. Absolutely recommend the Lazy J Motel!!

Hospitality was excellent; and although the breakfast was in no way fancy there was an assortment of options which lead the 12 year old travelling with us enthusing about it. The laundromat included in the building was appreciated
All tea lovers know hot water doesn’t cut it. A kettle to boil water would be great but perhaps not the best when children are around

Breakfast was great. Room was well equipped with everything you’d need. Staff were very accommodating and had great customer service.
The only thing was the bed was a bit uncomfortable and firm.

It's a bit worn down, but seems they've started renovations. Guy at reception (owner, I think) very friendly and helpful. Clean rooms with fridge and coffee machine. Decent continental breakfast. Altogether, great value for the price. I recommend trying the restaurant across the street (Casa Roma), great Greek food!

A great place to stay for a night travelling between Montana and Banff. I think we were upgraded as my daughter and I had 2 connecting rooms. Beds were comfy and the free breakfast was nourishing.

Very friendly and welcoming owner. We have an EV and this motel was less than a 5 minute walk from the Flo charging station. The continental breakfast was a good spread...fruit, cereals, muffins, and an assortment of breads and bagels to toast.
