Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was in a convenient location close to Yellowstone, perfect for enjoying the nearby park and attractions. The Western-themed decor created a welcoming atmosphere. The rooms were average, but unfortunately, the pool and hot tub were out of order during my stay. Walking to shops and restaurants was easy, but there was a noticeable issue with the bed in my room.
This hotel has a convenient location close to Yellowstone National Park with a welcoming Western theme. The rooms are outdated and in poor repair, but they come with useful amenities like a microwave and vending machines. The dining experience was good but limited. The service was somewhat lacking, but the price was reasonable.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, with a nice cover over the comforter. Having a fridge in the room was a great convenience. The service, especially from housekeeping, was top-notch. The location was perfect for my visits to Yellowstone National Park, just a couple of minutes away. The dining experience, though starting a bit late for me, was decent overall. The facilities were well-maintained and offered a pleasant stay.
