Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
For the price this place was a steal. Nice pool, clean quiet rooms. The gym was tiny but looked like it had nice equipment. Lots of options for breakfast. I did not see an elevator so I would not want to have
The lobby is gorgeous. The pool is warm with extended hours. The staff does the room daily which is not common nowadays. The breakfast starts at 6 am which is convenient so we can reach Yellowstone early.
Would stay here again for sure! Comfy room and it was clean!

Don’t be fooled by the hotel lobby
Hotel room was very drab and dark. It is definitely a dated hotel and needs a refresh. We had to go to the front desk and request toilet paper and Kleenex, as there was not enough in our room for the night. The coffee pot was full of water, which is understandable since it didn’t work. There are also little tiny brown bugs flying around in the room. It was relatively clean.
Excellent location with friendly staff. Room was clean and comfortable and very large. Bathroom is in need of an update and caulking for nice appearance. Good breakfast with nice variety.
Stay and the on site staff were wonderful. The follow up post stay was anominable. Trying to get a receipt of stay has cost me an hour of my tine without resolution. Be careful with BigSkyResorts. Rude telephone staff and no interpersonal skills.

Disappointed in their customer service!
I called prior to check in to cancel, as my traveling companion became ill at the last moment. They refused to credit me. Customer Service needs improvement!
Very beautiful room and really enjoyed the hot tub in our room. The only thing I would recommend is installing an elevator in such a nice place. We are elderly, and it was not real easy to take stuff up the stairs.
This is a well-maintained and clean property. The pool and hot tub area were in excellent condition. The desk attendant was very efficient and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.
The only problem we have is an air conditioner than doesn’t cool properly. The thermostat is set to 60 and it might be down to 68 at best, which is warmer than we prefer for sleeping. We will report it when we check out as it isn’t a big enough deal to be worth changing rooms
