Close to Yellowstone National Park. Parking at the hotel was easily accessible. Breakfast buffet at the hotel was included with the cost of each room. Hotel is within walking distance of numerous places for lunch & dinner. Rooms were clean & spacious. However it would have been nice if there had been a grab bar next to the toilet as it was very low. Toilet would have been suitable for a young child not an adult.

We booked this hotel last minute because we were planning on camping but had a member of our group get a flat and go down on a motorcycle so we needed to stay in a cleaner environment, I didn’t have high expectations because it was the cheapest cheapest available but I was really shocked how nice this hotel really was. The rooms were clean and spacious, the hotel was nicely decorated to match the theme and they have the most amazing delicious free breakfast. I’ve stayed at probably thousands of hotels at this point in my life and never have I experienced such a lovely free breakfast, they had so many delicious options that I wanted to try but couldn’t eat anymore. There are many options of where to stay in this area, butI would definitely look for this place to book again. Every single person I interacted with in the hotel was very sweet and helpful and truly seem like they just wanted you to have a good stay.

This is the worst motel stay we have ever had. No elevator made it tough for two seniors to get our suitcases and items upstairs. Should have given us a first floor room. Staff was hateful and you could barely understand what they were saying. Would not recommend. Spend a few dollars more and stay in a nicer hotel.

We were given a room with broken furnitures which could've been dangerous for my kid as the drawer was about to fall on his foot. No hot water in shower. Same breakfast everyday. Front desk staff didnt care. No housekeeping on day 1. Overall it was a horrible hotel for the money that we paid. I feel cheated by expedia. I demand a apology from the expedia.
Broken drawer. Was about to fall on my kid's foot. I stopped it. Thank God.

Convenient and walkable. Only complaint was I was admonished by some self important staff person for putting a couple scoops of ice in my cooler to help keep medicine and supplements I travel with cold. Apparently only one scoop is allowed which is ridiculous as after paying $250+ per night I think it's only reasonable that I should be able to get the ice I need. I complained to the manager and he agreed with me. I found out that the hotel sells bags of ice for $8 so now I realized staff was just hustling me to buy a bag of ice...which I didn't need. I just needed the equivalent of maybe a 1/4 of a small bag. Anyway I felt it was a shameful unnecessary hustle of the very tourists that support their town by virtually paying double for everything imaginable. But we all know that's part of the deal when traveling.
