Perfect for a quick overnight, and we had a great dinner at the Blanca Tatanka so very convenient. Loved the blackout shades, but could use a nightlight for the bathroom! We will be back!

Nice hotel. The front desk staff were very nice and accommodating. The only problem was they had my reservation under my maiden name and couldn’t find me at first.

Staff were great. The fruit and muffins at the front desk in the morning were a nice touch as well as the complimentary items in the room. Beds were comfortable. The location was great close to all kinds of shops and restaurants and not to far from the entrance to Yellowstone park

The Scout is exactly what we expect from a western, road trip type of affordable motel. Just like growing up on Rte 66 when I was a kid in the 60s only updated for the 21st century. Thanks for having the last night on our 16-day road trip end on a high note against some other dismals stays along the way.

An overnight stay after leaving Tellowstone, enroute to Denver. We had a comfortable night in a great location, close to some of the town’s better restaurants (we chose the Cody Steakhouse) and enjoyed an after dinner walk along the shopping street, visiting a great tee-shirt shop which was still open

The hotel has a small parking lot that it shares with a restaurant. It can get very busy in the lot and, if one chooses to open the windows, very loud due to the restaurant location and outdoor seating. That being said, the weather was nice and I would have preferred to open the windows at night; however, the noise and the tears in the screens prohibited that. The room was adequate and the beds were comfortable. I don't usually use ice but, after our long trip, I did want ice with my water. The ice machine was broken. It was broken through our 3 night stay. The first night, the lobby hostess did offer to point me in the direction to buy ice and then even offered to go get some, leaving the desk empty. I did not want her to have to leave her post so opted for no ice...I would have preferred the ice machine work. The walls were thin -- we heard a lot of hall noise when in our room. Also, the location is on a busy roadway, even with the windows closed, it was loud. As I said, the room was adequate, but there are some things that would prevent me from staying here again.

Could use some updating and simple repairs but loved the charm, reception and location! Too bad the restaurant and bar was close the night we were there but plenty of options nearby. Would definitely come back!
