Clean and private stay

The building is in a good location for my tastes; not located right on the roads leading into Yellowstone which would be good at busy times during the year so there isn’t a lot of traffic right outside the building, but it is very close to the entrance. Within walking distance to a few good eating spots. Our room was exactly as described and very clean. We didn’t have any issues during our stay. Would definitely recommend!

Great location

On the southwest side of town, it was a great access point into West Yellowstone! Felt like the only rental unit in a 3-story multi-unit apartment complex with laundry and everyone seemed extremely friendly and helpful the router range seemed weak as I could get full internet in the living room, but 5ft away in the bedroom not so much. You're on the first floor of a street where many locals walk by, so if you want privacy, hope you're okay with horizontal blinds... the only down side is, during the summer there is no AC in the building, so putting the fan up against the window cools down the place, but then you get random gawkers looking in If you put in the address given, it will take you to "Ventures West Inc", and not the actual property.. which is next door. If you're coming in late at night, just something to keep in mind
