Nice people. Room was clean. Good working air and heat. Big tv.Room was Very small. Armoire rattled every time you walked by! Breakfast was limited and mostly cold food. No restaurant. You must have a car since its outer town. tiny convenience store next door with few options. But overpriced for what you got.*outer door was NEVER LOCKED! Did NOT like that since we were on the end room. A bit noisy as well, right there.
We stayed here for two nights when we visited Yellowstone. The staff was friendly and helpful, just wish there would’ve been an elevator with all our luggage we had. The only other thing was that we wished that it had a couple more pillows, nothing major. Overall, it was a comfortable, safe and convenient place to stay for a couple nights. Not too far from West Yellowstone but not right in town either. Nice and quiet.
Great property on Wyoming and Montana border in West Yellowstone forestland with easy and quick access to west entrance. Sunrise was beautiful to watch everyday. Nice pizza place adjacent to property. Welcoming staff. Highly recommend and will definately consider again when back in Yellowstone.
The site of the hotel was very scenic with river running in the background and picturesque dwellings. The room was small but the front yard was welcoming with chairs and flowers.
We loved the location of this hotel....outside of town with beautiful mountain views. The rooms were clean and appeared to be recently renovated but were small. We also found the hotel to be a bit noisy but not terribly so.
Very good location and convenience when you visit yellow stone park but for some reason I stayed only three days in I paid for four days I don’t know if I can get refund for one day I checked out Saturday instead Sunday thank you
