This motel is very old but very clean. The shower had good water pressure and the room was large with comfortable beds. The check-in area had games that were available for families to use. It is literally at at the entrance to Yellowstone. I would definitely stay here again!

The room was clean and check in, although rather late at 4 pm, went smoothly. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I stayed 3 nights and towels were replaced daily and trash taken out. It felt safe. Parking can be a problem. Overall, a nice experience. I enjoyed my stay. The National park was amazing.

The national park was really close and the town was in good walking distance. It was nice to be able to back right up to your door. The rooms were clean. The shower got and strong. As a group of friends traveling having the large vanity outside the shower/ toilet area was a real plus. Would stay again.
