We loved our room. Looked newly renovated. Cozy and clean. The staff was 10/10 so nice! They had free breakfast with plenty of outdoor tables. The mornings were cool but the tables were in the sun and it was amazing and a nice view of the mountains. If you want to be right in town this is not the place for you but if you don't mind a 10 minute easy drive and want to stay somewhere quite and cozy I highly recommend. Would definitely stay again if we travel out west!

If you want a good nights sleep, then don’t stay here. Insulation is non-existent. You’ll hear everyone else’s plumbing, walking upstairs, voices. Ear plugs won’t help!

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.
