Lazy Duck Inn
Very Clean, very quiet, reasonable price. You get a breakfast voucher for a nice local restaurant, but it was unclear if it was for one or every day of my stay, and the restaurant doesn't open until 8:00 a.m. No kleenex in the room.

It's a motel but you have almost all you need from a 3-star hotel. Everything have been careful considered and planned: bakfast, curtain, towels, drinking water, touch-activiated lamps, refregerator, TV, USB battery charger, shower, etc.

Property management folks that came during the day were very friendly and accommodating. Room overall was very mice and the decor was very nice. Mostly quiet in the evening and easy to sleep.

6/10 Good

While we like the no contact check-in and out, the property did not live up to the advertising. There was no AC, only a fan. The shower stall was tiny, and we're not big people, maybe 3ft ×2ft. The breakfast voucher was a nice touch but the restaurant's menu left little to be desired. The town of West Yellowstone was fun. Nice shops that stayed open late. Great proximity to Yellowstone NP entrance.

8/10 Very Good

Our stay at the Lazy Duck was comfortable with easy access to Yellowstone park. Plenty of dining options close by. The only drawback was there is no AC although you don't need it at night and you should not be spending much time there during the day so it was fine with just a fan. We would stay there again.

2/10 Poor

Stay Away…unethical business practices
This company has many deceptive motel practices regarding pricing, additional fees, disclosure of key amenities, and operating procedures. 1. Pricing—Promotes lowest price for 2 night stay. A. Room price 2 nights $348.98 B. Taxes and fees. $57.32 C. Not mentioned Upfront —Property fees $111.92 (What is this?) Grand Cost Total $518.00 2. Non-Disclosure Never clearly upfront stated No Air Conditioning…when you booking for a place with 90 degree weather 3. Operating procedure Day before Check In you are told Remote Only!! Avoid at All Costs… Report to Hotels.com and local Better Business Bureau

Clean. Quiet. Comfy. We booked our stay for a last minute trip at the Lazy Duck and were not disappointed! A great spot as a base camp for Yellowstone National Park. No breakfast on property—-but you do get breakfast vouchers at a nearby cafe. We would definetly stay here again and look forward to how the property evolves as it is under new management.

Quaint Motel
This is a quaint hotel located on the western side of town. Overall the room was good. It was clean and even had a small kitchen. The bathroom (especially the shower) was small, but functional. They do leave you a little goodie gift of a rubber duck, taffy, and water. Check in process was simple and easy. They were very communicative with emails up till the time of check in. I had a hiccup with the room when I first checked in. There is a number to call to get a hold of someone; and they responded very quickly to take care of the situation. Admittedly, I was a little apprehensive about no front desk; but everything was great. I would recommend this motel.

All Ok except there is no AC unit. Didn’t get proper sleep after hectic touring around Yellowstone. They have a fan but not enough for summer nights. Opened the window also but still hot.
