Would stay again!
Nice renovated hotel! We enjoyed the breakfast and great customer service. With our large family we also fit well in the deluxe room with 2 queens and a king. Great location and price for what we got. Would highly recommend!

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.

Perfect Rustic Charm Stay
My family and I took our first trip out west. We were staying in West Yellowstone and this appealed to us because of its proximity to the west Yellowstone entrance as well as its rustic charm. Great staff, friendly service of fun and neat convenience store with café on site. Very cleanly well maintained and a good breakfast that started nice and early so that we could get into the park by 6:30 AM. Couldn’t have asked for a better first stay

All is good only if the noise of the toilet flushing could he quieter.

Great place to sleep and eat breakfast
Stayed 3 nights as we toured Yellowstone for two days. Beds were comfy, breakfast was good which is hard for two of our picky eaters, so something for everyone. Breakfast was ready early which was important for us to beat the crowds to the park. Prices were way better than in West Yellowstone, which was important as we were only there to sleep and eat breakfast. I did check out the lake north of the hotel 10 minutes which was lovely and had a day use area.

Very clean, but walls are thin noisy at night and when staff sets up breakfast the toilet flushing in the next room wakes me up.

The hotel staff was great. The noise level was not good at all. No insulation between floors or rooms. You could hear every noise.

Quiet and Convenient.
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.

A little bit of frustration
The hotel felt a bit outdated and would definitely benefit from renovation. While breakfast was included in the room price, the options were very limited and disappointing. We also had an unpleasant experience when the front desk staff asked us to leave the dining area—even though the common area was full and it was raining outside. I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

2 night Yellowstone trip
I would not stay here again. The walls were so thin we heard every cough and conversation from the room next to us which disrupted our sleep.

The number 1 thing this motel has going for it is location. We loved the location - close to Yellowstone, but not in the middle of town and crowds. The design of the hotel was inviting and the staff was amazing. Some issues: 1, the bathroom/sink was TINY! There was also no lid on the toilet - and no place to put clean clothes, glasses, phone, etc. except the back of the open toilet! I really recommend at least putting some wall/door hooks in there! 2, we really wished they’d offered a full breakfast instead of just a continental breakfast. We had to stop at McDonald’s for hot food two mornings of our trip.
