Located in a farming area outside of Babb , and a couple of miles off the main highway and accessed by a decent gravel road . About 15 minutes from the two restaurants in the Babb area . Exterior of “motel”very unwelcoming on appearance, but room was clean , well appointed and the bed was comfortable . About 15 miles from Canadian border and less than an hour from Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta Canada. Also about an hour from East Glacier Village . Good accommodations at a reasonable cost if you want to visit each NP.
Waterton Lakes is incredible and not too crowded in mid August .
We stayed there for a total of 4 nights with 2 rooms/night as a family. Overall, it was a clean and comfortable place. Because there are no cell phone coverages, we needed to rely on their wifi, but the wifi was not reliable in some rooms. We had to buy breakfast groceries the day before because they do not provide. The room service is minimum. Nonetheless, we enjoyed the stay overall.

No mention of 15 kms gravel steep hill and curves. Not good for a bike. No food or beverages. No laundry. No cell coverage. No tv
Doesn’t look like much but was a cute lil hideaway. Staff made everything convenient, room and area was clean. The drive to and from has amazing views!! Could have used more outlets and an ice machine but we made due. Would stay here again!
Easy to find .. we got there late .. but check - in was prearranged and had no problems.
Had wood base around bottom of bed , hit my toes on that a few times .

The road to the property is unpaved, no street lights. Scare to drive at night. The environment around the area looks like just start or about to become civilized .
Family stayed here while on the east side of Glacier. Hotel was great for what it is. There is not a lot of options once outside the park. The hotel is out in the middle of nowhere but the rooms were clean and the staff very friendly. We would stay here again.
Hooks Hideaway is clean and comfortable with helpful staff. It's not a highway hotel, as the name suggests. The scenery is beautiful, and the grounds are well maintained. I spent a lot of time in the gazebo.
This place is so far off the beaten path its ridiculous. Traveled on 3 miles of dirt roads & through an area where heavy equipment was working. This place barely has the basics of what you would expect, no TV, no microwave(had to go out it the hall for that) no outlet by the bed to plug in CPAP. On the plus side it was clean.
Very clean, quiet, and comfortable! Peaceful location without the traffic of St. Mary village. I would definitely stay here again!

Hotel was relatively new and clean. Hotel is located several miles outside of Babb and on a gravel road. Construction ongoing near property. WiFi was very intermittent
This little motel is down a dirt road adjacent to a huge irrigation project. We were exhausted when we got there. It is VERY humble but immaculately clean, quiet and pleasant. It lacks some of the amenities of larger hotels but that is fine. It is on the Blackfoot reservation and I expect that it helps support the local area.
If you want to visit glacier, find another hotel in east side. This motel had really poor internet connection with no cellphone connection. I missed a shuttle ticket to many glacier because of the poor internet connection. The room only had minimum things, no drawer, super small shower room, tiny sink, so if you are planning to stay with your family, this is not the option for you.
