Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has really cute decor with huge bathroom and comfortable beds, making for a cozy stay. The service, particularly regarding handicapped accommodations, needs improvement, but the housekeeping and shuttle services are convenient. The location is ideal for nature lovers, being close to beautiful waterfalls, a bike trail, and Yellowstone. The dining experience, although not detailed, seems to have some shortcomings, possibly needing more variety. Overall, the facilities are likely adequate, with room for improvement.
This hotel is a hidden gem with stunning decor and spacious bathrooms. The beds are incredibly comfortable, making it hard to leave in the morning. The only downside is the cramped bathroom if accessibility is a concern, especially for those needing mobility aids like walkers or wheelchairs.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious with comfortable beds and a huge bathroom, and the decor was really cute. However, the bathroom was not suitable for handicapped guests with walkers or wheelchairs. The service was satisfactory overall, especially the housekeeping, but the paid shuttle service was a bit pricey. The location was excellent, being close to beautiful waterfalls, a Bike Trail, and a good restaurant, though it was noisy due to being close to everything. The dining options were average with only nachos available. The facilities were decent, but some aspects needed improvement.
