    Exceptional Stay Minutes Outside Gardiner

    Liked everything.

    We stayed for 4 nights. The location was excellent - about 10-15 minutes from the Gardiner entrance. We were outside the crush of tourists in a beautiful setting. Our room had the balcony (over the main entrance). The views of the landscape and mountains were spectacular. Although we had a full kitchen, breakfast was included. The breakfast room was quaint and the food (hot and cold) prepared was delicious. There is a market in town where we purchased groceries for the four days (lots of picnic foods for the park). There is free parking and a space for us each night when we returned from the park. The room was very spacious. There is a staircase next to the check in office that brings you upstairs to the apartment. There is one-bedroom, really large bathroom, full kitchen, and then a living room with couch and kitchen table. The balcony is off the room with couch. The space was very welcoming. We loved our time here and definitely recommend.

    Would have liked earlier available breakfast time and breakfast included in the price. We skipped breakfast both days to get early starts in the park.

    Friendly staff. Was surprised to learn the folks managing the property are from the same town that we live it. Comfortable cabin. Great views. Close to town.

    The breakfast was hot and delicious. She makes different hot dishes each day, along with the basics. The location is very peaceful and surrounded by beautiful views. The owners are friendly, kind, and helpful. Our bed was so comfortable!!!

    I did find a spider in our room.

    Location, breakfast, comfortable bed, clean room. Wildlife in the yard. We selected this facility based on the offering of a breakfast. And the homemade breakfast was absolutely AWESOME.

    It would be nice to have some lighting at the drive entrance to know where to enter after dark.

    The room was made to look like the inside of a cabin. Wonderful idea for the setting of the property. The rocking chairs on the porch were a nice addition. I sat in the early morning and saw lots of wildlife.

    I would have preferred to not have had to gaze on the "Trump" painted shed the neighbours had on display but I guess that was part of the experience in seeing the part of the USA where somehow despite all the overwhelming evidence still support a lifelong crook, liar, self interested f***wit who is still trying to overturn the democratic institutions of your wonderful country!! However the natural scenery and grandeur of where I was more than made up for that and i treated is as a cultural experience!

    location and ease of facility. ALso the easy way it was managed to extend the stay by an extra night - thank you.

    Nothing really

    This hotel is a bit away from the city (very small city), about 4 miles out of town. Rooms and bed were very comfortable and large. Breakfast was good and variety etc was good. Staff was very nice and helpful. Would stay there again if we went back

    The steep steps up to the room was a surprise. We had no trouble, but as we get older, already in our 70’s, that might be a challenge. I don’t remember it being in the information, but I could have missed it.

    The location was awesome-beautiful view, wildlife across the road & amazing fall colors. Breakfast was delicious!.
