    It's unfortunate that breakfast was not included. Additionally, the bathroom floors were sticky.

    The location at Gardiner is very convenient. It was excellent that extra binoculars and water were provided for guests.

    The only thing I wish that was offered was some sort of grab and go breakfast or continental breakfast. Also wish the fan and light in bathroom were on separate switches, as my toddler hated the noise and therefore didn't want to use the toilet. We figured out we could turn the heat light on though and use that instead.

    Loved the added perks of smores kits and water bottles. Made me feel appreciated. Plus the pool and game room are amazing.

    Location on the river.

    The location was great and it was just a few minutes away from one of the Yellowstone entrances . The rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. Bathroom is outdated but fine. The hotel is located right on the river so we had an amazing view. We did not realize there was no elevator, but it was only two floors so it was fine for us.

    I thought the reception area could be spruced up, looked old and would be great if the coffee station was set up differently near the sofa it's presently way too close to the reception area. Someone really needs to come in a do a makeover, My room had what I needed but nothing more better bathroom lighting would have been great. I did not like the fact that I stayed 4 nts and no one ever came to my door or my room to clean. One day I poked my head out in the morning and asked for a few towels to be changed and my trash cans emptied. I made my own bed, that was fine. Also towards the end had to ask for toilet paper. No safes were a surprise as was the spotty internet. Oh a light above the full length mirror would have been a plus. Now the S'mores let me just say they are nothing spectacular, the chocolate was too thick and the marshmallows were the smallest skimpiest I've ever seen, therefore they could not melt the chocolate....all of the grownups agreed. Really this is a great idea just invest in a bit more quality at the very least.

    I thought the location was good, you could walk to some restaurants and there is a great supermarket just a 5 minute walk from the hotel. My room had a nice mountain view on the second floor and because I had sciatica they had someone carry up my luggage and bring it down to the car on departure, Of course I tipped generously as I am not a light packer! Our last 2 nights were unusually chilly for august so it was nice to sit outside by the fire pit and it gave us a chance to chat with fellow travellers, the S'more were fun. Beds were great really comfy mattress. Lighting was decent in the room.

    The hotel rooms appeared a little older and not quite as comfortable.

    We rented one cabin and 3 motel rooms. The cabin was exceptional. Very clean and comfortable. We loved the location. It was so close to the entrance of the park and all elk wondering through the town was a highlight.

    They want coffee in the cabin. That’s my only complaint.

    When we arrived they couldn’t find the reservation. They honored the booking and because they were out of rooms they upgraded us to a cabin. The staff of the hotel not only accommodating but very friendly.

    The location was wonderful. We were right along the Yellowstone river. We shut off the ac and opened the windows and listened to the river all night! The hotel was clean, the staff was very friendly. The beds were super comfortable as were the Pillows. The hotel was walking distance to restaurants. A great deli across the street had yummy breakfasts and we purchased sandwiches for our daily trips! Great area Great town. Perfect spot to say if you want to be near Yellowstone NP. It was ~5-10 minute drive to Roosevelts Arch!

    The hotel seemed a bit run down - like they purchased an old motel and decorated it nicely but you could still tell that it had seen better days. Also, the bathroom wasn't clean. There were black hairs in the shower drain area and on the bathroom floor. We cleaned them out ourselves since we checked in late and we didn't really notice them until we went to take a shower at 11:30pm. We told the staff about it the next day and they immediately cleaned the bathroom but strangely enough afterwards I found more black hairs near the base of the toilet (we are a family of blondes) so I don’t think the housekeeping staff really cleaned the bathroom after all. Lastly, there is a notice in the room saying that if you don’t remove the Do Not Disturb sign from your door by 11am then they would not clean the room for the day. This is fine, but at 10am we received a piece of paper under the door saying that the room wouldn’t be serviced because the Do Not Disturb sign was outside the door. We were actually leaving the room momentarily and had planned on removing the sign before 11am. We told the front desk this and they sent the housekeeping staff over. Just another ding against the housekeeping staff.

    GREAT location. Close to town and close to the north gate of Yellowstone. Our room had a gorgeous unobstructed view of the river. The staff were super friendly. The hotel had fire pits and s’mores kits, also a pool, hot tub, laundry, gaming room, and Adirondack chairs overlooking the river. Family friendly place!

    Room size was a bit cramped, probably because of the 2 queen size beds, was better suited for a King bed. Luckily we were there for 2 nights only not sure I would have liked spending a whole week there.

    Facility clean but carpet smelled. Housekeeping provided a spray that eliminated the odor. Restaurant next door very good.
