Easy check-in and cute room!

The check-in process was super easy and convenient with the keypad code. We were able to get in smoothly without any hassle. The room was decorated so cute, with thoughtful touches that made it feel welcoming and comfortable. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The onsite ice machine came in handy. We appreciated the text after our first night asking how things were. We had a great stay!

Great place to stay!

Cabin is just as described. Very clean and comfortable. Has an issue getting in but was able to contact owners ASAP and they were very helpful! Love the location- close enough to walk to downtown but quiet. We enjoyed being able to sit outside at night at the tables. If you like BBQ, don’t miss Firehole BBQ- it is worth the wait if there’s a line. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends !

Good, not great

In a perfect location for walking to restaurants/shops, host was very responsive and got us a cooler to take to Yellowstone. However, the room was much smaller than it seemed on the post, the bed was super uncomfortable, and you could hear people through the walls. Overall, a good place but I think overpriced for what we got.

A little off

We thought we were renting a cabin, so we were a little surprised that it was actually a motel room. It was fine, however, it was showing its age.

Just Okay

Probably would not stay here again. There were no TV channels, not even local channels. The coffee service had wrong bags for the coffee maker and a bag of coffee grounds with no filters. Fairly expensive for just a bed and shower but is the peak season. We did find some very good restaurants near the room.

Good little room right next to Yellowstone

If you are looking for a clean place to stay right next to Yellowstone (literally 5 min away) then this is the place for you. If you want something with lots of amenities, and lots of space, you may want to look elswhere. Pros: -Clean -Easy to get to -Close to park, restaurants, gas, and shopping -Easy check in/check out Cons: -Small -Limited storage -Limited parking -Thin walls -Firm mattress Decent place to wind down after a day at the park. For context, we were there the last week of October. Room: Small motel style room (bed, small fridge, microwave, desk, chair, and a couple bedside tables). It was me and my husband, with two full size suitcases and a couple backpacks, and it was tight. Room stayed nice and warm even with the cold temperatures outside. Unfortunately, the only place to hang up jackets was all the way in the back of the room, which sucked when you walked in from the snow. No real good place to take off wet shoes, so the area by the door got full of snow and leaves no matter how much you kicked stuff of your soles before entering. I would think the room would be great in the summer, but it was a little difficult in the winter. The bathroom is small and COLD. I understand it was winter, and it was around 30° outside, but the bathroom could use a heater vent, or better insulation. It was frigid in there in the mornings. Overall, it got the job done. We were rested in the mornings, ready for another busy day at the park... and we didn't pay $300 for a room in the other nearby hotels.
