A great stay in the '60's
The Sapphire motel is a cute little throw back motel. The decor takes me back to my childhood. It is designed andbdecorated to transport you to the 1960's with retro decor butnwith modern touches. I was surprised but in a very pleasant way. GREAT STAY!

Fun, cheap & cheerful
We needed one night having extended our stay in Bozeman on a whim. So glad we found this place! The midcentury decor is the star at this revamped motel and the thoughtful touches really make the stay special. There are signs in the room explaining the history of the property, and there is evident pride of ownership in this family-run business. Walkable to the main street with shops and restaurants, though we just ordered a pizza and stayed in. Amazing value for money, and the cleanliness is impeccable. I wish I could clone this place for cities I visit more often!

This 1950’s retro hotel is a great place to stay. It’s very close to the hustle and bustle of downtown Bozeman.

Nice property, highly recommend
Very nice hotel with a great location, just blocks from downtown Bozeman. My room had access to a courtyard with Adirondack chairs & a picturesque outdoor seating area. The price was reasonable, convenient parking & free wifi. I would stay here again.

More than a Motel.
It is a good hotel! Don't let the word MOTEL fools you.
Had a great stay with family.

My only complaint was that housekeeping did not leave any toilet tissue. There was not any at all. Thankfully I was able to call and ask, and they brought me a single roll.
We had a couple of issues with our shower leaking. I would highly recommend staying there and would probably stay again. I personally thought the weekend rates were expensive.

A great cheap place with good amenities. Not the most comfortable bed, but everything else was fantastic.
Highly recommend for a clean and cheap motel.
