I love the check in process which was great when people are arriving at different times. The place is clean and super cute. We will definately stay here again. The doors could use some WD40 and the heater in my room needs some maintaince but other than that it was perfect.

The best "budget" hotel I've ever stayed at. It was clean, remodeled and had all amenities needed for a comfortable stay. There was even a little welcome present waiting for us upon arrival, some delicious local taffy.

I liked the easy check in process! Though wasn’t a real check in, the host just texted me the code to get in the room. The door wasn’t secure when we arrived so that was a little strange. Room was decorated nicely. Clean.

Our stay at the Lazy Duck was comfortable with easy access to Yellowstone park. Plenty of dining options close by. The only drawback was there is no AC although you don't need it at night and you should not be spending much time there during the day so it was fine with just a fan. We would stay there again.

It was a pleasure staying at "The Lazy Duck" during my recent visit to West Yellowstone". The location was easy to find and Check-in was seamless. The room was clean, cute and well stocked for morning coffee. We appreciated the breakfast voucher to the "Old Town Cafe". Breakfast was great! We recommend "The Lazy Duck" for all future guests! Thank you so much for your hard work! The room was lovely!

Liked: Amenities
SO expensive for what you get, 90 a night for a cleaning fee, small rooms. They were clean and cute and an easy mile walk to the main shopping and dining areas. Area around hotel was very dark at night and run down but did not encounter any safety issues. Minutes drive to the west entrance of park! No staff on site but they were relatively responsive via text if needed. We only stayed two nights but for longer stays, would want a clean and fresh supplies. At 350 a night, would maybe stay again since all hotels and motels in the area charge very high fees due to the proximity to the park. Cute updated style motel over all. Had all the supplies needed, bottle water for one night, wine and coffee glasses, coffee and plasticware and plates.

Clean. Quiet. Comfy. We booked our stay for a last minute trip at the Lazy Duck and were not disappointed! A great spot as a base camp for Yellowstone National Park. No breakfast on property—-but you do get breakfast vouchers at a nearby cafe. We would definetly stay here again and look forward to how the property evolves as it is under new management.
