Hotel staff was amazing, and the facilities were clean and good to stay in. Bar was nice and good was good too. The only reason I'd say not so great as it was $220 for an $100 room. Great authentic place but you are paying for the location. Cafe across the street I top notch too. Would stay again.

Perfectly acceptable accommodation. A bit dated but comfortable beds and clean. Easy walk to a few food options. WiFi is spotty in the room and there is zero options for connecting in the area other than hotel or restaurant wifi. Recommend for super quick access to/from Yellowstone.

The Lodge was nice for the area. The general manager Curtis was amazing. Sadly no ice machine, limited dining help. The rooms were rustic to match area, beds were okay comfortable, bathrooms clean. No blow dryer! A great place to kick back in the lobby by the fireplace, but not quite cold enough for it. The coffee was absolutely delicious.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The only really good thing about this place is how close it was to the entrance of the park. The room was okay, but it’s very dated, and WiFi was almost nonexistent. Walls are paper thin, and there was large gaps in the door. The bar and restaurant were closed the day we arrived. It was open the following day, but we did not eat there. The place across the street, Beartooth Cafe, had absolutely delicious food, and would highly recommend them.

This room was just a few minutes away from Yellowstone. The staff was very friendly and told us a lot about the little town. He even showed us pictures of the winter before and the snowfall that they get. We walked all over town and loved it. There is a very nice gift shop across the street. We stayed in the family room with 3 queen beds to accommodate our family of 6, which worked out great. The shower was amazing, it was big enough for 10 people. I haven't ever seen this nice of a shower in a motel before. We would definitely stay here again!
