The room is spacious with 2 queen bed and a couch. Room is really clean and comfortable despite the inn being 2 stars. I would probably say this is one of the best 2 star place I have stayed at

It was a clean room and good beds, and we had the handicap accessible bathroom. A couple problems though. There were no cabinets in the bathroom so no room to set hairbrush, makeup, toothbrush, or toothpaste etc. Just a sink! Very inconvenient!! Also, the power went off on the bed side of the room in the early morning, so we had no lights except coming from the bathroom. It felt like we paid way too much for a room that wasn't up to par.

Yellowstone Big Rock Inn

Our room and bathroom were a really nice size. Also, the bathroom set up had the shower and toilet together in a room with the sink outside of them. So much easier to get ready with that setup! The room was clean and the front desk clerk was very friendly when we checked in. It could use another lamp/light in the room since it's rather dark. Also, if you leave early (and don't a lot of people do that when they're going in to Yellowstone?) there are no luggage carts available. They lock them in the office and I'm not sure what time the office opens, but we were gone by then. Other than that little hiccup, I'd definitely stay here again. It's very convenient for accessing the north entrance to Yellowstone.

Hotel is adequate and as described on the website. The mattresses are a bit on the soft side. The towels should be updated. It’s very close to the town center and the Yellowstone park. Staff is very friendly. Elks like to come to visit the property and enjoy the grass.
