Stay on the set of Mad Men

We stayed at the Sapphire for two nights. One on each end of our trip to Yellowstone. I loved the hotel. Decore and theme were perfection. It was clean. We had a patio room with a big grassy area and swings out back which the kids loved. Location excellent. Would recommend to anyone. Donna at the front desk was wonderful.

Awesome little motel, you can tell they care!

Such an interesting place. I love the 50s vibe, great coffee in the lobby, lots of extra blankets in the room. The little yard with the chairs and games for the kids was nice for just hanging out. The mirror by the sink is a Bluetooth speaker! Such a great mix of retro style and modern amenities everywhere! This is probably the best budget hotel experience I have ever had! Highly recommend!
