This motel is very old but very clean. The shower had good water pressure and the room was large with comfortable beds. The check-in area had games that were available for families to use. It is literally at at the entrance to Yellowstone. I would definitely stay here again!

The room was clean and check in, although rather late at 4 pm, went smoothly. The staff was friendly and welcoming. I stayed 3 nights and towels were replaced daily and trash taken out. It felt safe. Parking can be a problem. Overall, a nice experience. I enjoyed my stay. The National park was amazing.
