Didn't get a chance to stay at the hotel because of wildfires but it looks like a good basic value for the price.

Please please clean up the dead bugs in the bathroom, under the bed, and by the window sill. This place would have been lovely to stay at if it weren’t for the dead and still alive bugs everywhere.

Nice place in a beautiful area. Staff was very friendly. Had an excellent burger at the restaurant. Could use a little care, several light bulbs in the room flickered or were out. It was a bit far from GTNP, longer drive than I thought it would be but it worked out okay.

Extremely rustic lodge. No mini refrigerator, no microwave, very poor internet connection.
A bed and a shower, nothing more.

Overall our stay was good. Ate dinner at the restaurant attached to lodge. Pizza was good. Staff very friendly, but they seemed short staffed to cover all areas. TVs in room don't work, so don't expect too much.

The hotel is well loved, and in need of some repairs. That said, the staff were friendly and helpful, the linens were clean, and we had a good night’s rest.

Is ok for very minimalist. No amenities (no coffee, microwave, fridge etc) and washer/dryers do not work. Understaffed with what appeared to be one person running food and lodging. Did appear to be clean.

Det tok 25 minutter for å sjekke inn.
Vi hadde tre overnattinger. For normalt renhold, skifte handklær etc var det ekstra betaling pr natt.

I liked that it was a good price. I didnt like that there was no air if you get hot you have to open a window. Also the water was white. And no dinning
