We weren't sure what to expect when we realized it's right on Main St. It suited our entire family of 7, everyone had their own bed!!! Family dollar right across the street for any miscellaneous items we needed. If we travel through this area every again, we will definitely be staying here again. 😊

It was a very nice place to stay overall. We were there for our family vacation to Yellowstone, and it was a good experience. The rooms were a little small, but it was very nice overall. They only have a small selection of muffins and fruit for breakfast, but there are a few restaurants in the area. There is a mini fridge in the room, and the grocery store is right around the corner and easily walkable.

Headed to Yellowstone

This is a wonderful place to stay. The room was clean. The front desk clerk was very helpful. It is a good hour drive from the West entrance into Yellowstone.

Great location… the staff were awesome. The room walls were my only complaint. People literally get up at 5am and get back at 1am making sure they slammed every single door in their room and have loud conversations while others try going to sleep. It wasn’t horrible for me cause I’m up anyway but for those that don’t like to hear your neighbors this place isn’t it. Other than that this place was awesome!

It is one story, you park right in front of your entry door. Therefore, you don’t have to carry your suitcases very far. Very clean. It would’ve been nice to have an iron and ironing board.
