The receptionist at the desk was outstanding ! I lost an Micro SD card in the aprking lot and she went out and serched all over the parking lot looking for it. She really demonstrated outstanding customer service! She didn't have to do that but she did. She really is a credit to your hotel and next time I am in the area I wil stay at your hotel I will also reccomend your hotel to anyone else that I know heading to Yellowstone or will be anywhere near the Cody, WY area. Thank you so much !

Very thin walls, really hard to get any sleep. Building backs up onto businesses which are open by 5am and making a hell of a racket very early. I would highly advise you take your business elsewhere if you value getting any rest at all. I prepaid for 2 nights and wish I could have left the first night,

Comfortable room, nice beds and facilities. Included breakfast very limited - pastries etc. but as described. Helpful staff nd a nice welcome. Like many hotel of similar type we did get lots of noise from neighbouring room with connecting door to ours, and the plumbing noises all round! But overall a comfortable clean and convenient place to stopover.

Perfect for a quick overnight, and we had a great dinner at the Blanca Tatanka so very convenient. Loved the blackout shades, but could use a nightlight for the bathroom! We will be back!

The Scout is exactly what we expect from a western, road trip type of affordable motel. Just like growing up on Rte 66 when I was a kid in the 60s only updated for the 21st century. Thanks for having the last night on our 16-day road trip end on a high note against some other dismals stays along the way.
