The room was small, but not tiny. The beds were good. The shower actually had decent water pressure. The sink is on the outside of the bathroom and super tiny, blow drying your hair was a challenge, because your elbows keep bumping the walls. The noise level in the hotel was horrible. I could hear my neighbors above me, sounded as if they were rearranging the room or training for tap dancing. The A/C works fantastic. Breakfast was already good. Checking in and out was easy and the front desk was awesome, she was able to answer every question we had and gave us helpful tips about traffic, were to do our laundry and were to eat. All in all our stay was good.

Continental breakfast was the same every day and food that was supposed to be hot was not. They do not clean the rooms or make the beds. Only replace towels and take out garbage if you ask. Not the way a hotel is supposed to operate. Disappointing. Staff was very nice, but nearby construction added on another 30 minutes trying to get to Yellowstone. Would not recommend.

We stayed 3 nights and the hotel was… good enough. I’m struggling to write a mediocre review because the staff was wonderful. They were all very nice and accommodating. The hotel itself is nice but the rooms are extremely small for a family of 4 (especially with teenagers and each person having their own suitcase). The bathroom sink area is very tiny. The walls are paper thin and we could hear the people next door coughing all night. Kids were running up and down the hall at midnight. The breakfast is not the best but it did the trick to grab something quick before heading to Yellowstone. Breakfast starts at 6am but it was usually out at 5:45am which was nice to grab and get to the park early.

We were surprised that the hotel did not have an elevator which made it difficult to bring luggage to the top floor. Food was below average and we mainly just had the cereal. Coffee was decent.

This hotel is missing elevator to go second floor. Bathroom is in bad shape, even though you will feel it is recently renovated. Toilet seat cover and exhaust fan are missing. Walls are too thin, and you can hear all outside noises clearly. Floor is wood instead of carpet, so you get to hear person walking in upstairs' room or side room clearly. if you are light sleeper, please don't even think about this location.
Photos are misleading in hotels.com and you should do a google street search before booking this.

We stayed here three nights and enjoyed it over all. Our room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the staff was friendly. The property is 7 miles outside of
West Yellowstone and there is not an elevator. It was fine for us, but might be difficult for others.
My only tiny complaint is that there aren't kleenex in the the room so if you suffer allergies, make sure you have some along. Also that the breakfast was the same every day. Although I appreciated the continental breakfast, a little variety would have been nice.

This place is the definition of “looks great in the photos, reality sold separately.”

The management has clearly cut costs wherever possible, and unfortunately, guests notice it everywhere. The room is so small that if one person is walking, everyone else has to negotiate traffic. The bathroom is even tinier, you practically have to step into the tub just to close the door.

The sink deserves a special mention. It’s so small that there’s nowhere to place your toiletries, and the faucet splashes water everywhere as if it’s trying to wash the entire countertop. There’s also no bathroom exhaust fan, and the walls are so thin you’ll become surprisingly familiar with your neighbors’ conversations without ever meeting them.

As if that wasn’t enough, one morning there was no hot water for a shower. Apparently, a cold shower was an unadvertised complimentary amenity.

Breakfast was an adventure. No peanut butter. No bread. Bagels with no cream cheese. No fruit. At one point I wondered if the breakfast was still being unpacked.

To top it off, housekeeping isn’t even included in the room rate.

Don’t let the shiny, professionally taken photos fool you. They show the best angles, not the actual experience. Hopefully this review helps you make an informed decision before booking.

Check in was easy, the front desk staff was kind. We did not know this hotel does not have an elevator. All the luggage had to be brought piece by piece up the stairs by my husband. The owner at the front desk said he would help bring up luggage but that never happened.
The room was very nice. We had the one with 2 queen beds and one king. It was perfect for my husband, two teenage kids and me.
One unfortunate issue we ran into was daily housekeeping. We were told that we were “on the list” of rooms to be cleaned daily. However, they never came by during our 3 night stay. We had to try and find housekeeping personnel to ask for towels, find bags to put in trash cans after we emptied trash and find a place to put trash which ended up being in the hallway since there was nowhere else. This is a very “self service only” type hotel with no phone in the room. After check-in, there really isn’t any communication or connection with hotel staff.
The soap/shampoo/conditioner in the bathroom had a very foul aroma. Thankfully, we brought our own.
The breakfast was good with hot items like eggs/cheese, sausage and French toast sticks. There were also cereals, milk, bagels, muffins, and watery juice.
There is a KOA general store right next door that has very friendly and helpful staff behind the counter. We were able to use the KOA laundry facilities.
For how expensive this hotel is, it falls short on service and care for guests. I’d caution others to be aware of all listed above.

We stayed for 3 days to visit Yellow Stone. Hotel looks renovated. Hotel is located at around 7 min drive from the west Yellow Stone entrance, which is a small town with some restaurants. Staff is very helpful, specially the lady at the front desk, super nice with us and even gave us some tips for our trip. They offer buffet with continental breakfast, it didn't have many options but to be fair, served the purpose for us to re-fuel for yellow stone adventures, and you appreciate it even more when there is nothing around where you can get a coffee in the morning. Only cons for us was the noise!. If your room is in the first floor, don't expect to sleep past 6am, you could feel the walking upstairs and all the noise from the hall, the bathroom showers in the morning made a lot of noise, etc. Should be the type of construction. Apart from this, it was a nice stay and very close to our park entrance. I recommend it.

First time in West Yellowstone. The hotel was nice and clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. There is nothing within walking distance of the hotel, and it is about a 15-minute drive to downtown. If you plan to stay somewhere where you can explore the downtown and all it has to offer, which is quite a bit, this might not be as accessible as other places in the area. If you want a place to rest away from the crowds and have the luck to get a room with a mountain view, you'll love it.

Had a terrible experience at this hotel. LOUD, DIRTY, TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE.

We booked 3 rooms several months in advance and asked to be placed together, well that didn’t happen. One of the rooms given was right next to the breakfast area, my poor friend and her family couldn’t sleep well the three nights we stayed there. The first morning we asked the front desk to move her to another room because this one was not clean, smelled bad and they couldn’t sleep, the front desk lady said they would need her to take her stuff out of the room in order to be put in a different room. Upon our return in the evening there was no room for my friend and they did not even clean the one she had initially and pretty much said she had to suck it up because that’s the room reserved through Expedia.

The other two rooms were not sound proof either you could hear everything going on in the hallway and the other rooms, with people waking up at 6am to head to the park in the morning this was just annoying.

We asked for more towels and were told we couldn’t get more towels until we returned the used towels (???)

Hot water was out for one night.

Breakfast was the same everyday.

Management definitely needs to take better care of their guest if they want to stay in business. I usually don’t leave negative reviews but this has been the worst hotel experience I’ve had.
