Really enjoyed my time there. Very nice place. Highly recommend.

Had a great stay at the Lazy Duck. It’s a little on the outskirts of town, but the town is so small it didn’t matter, we still walked to diner one night. It was quiet and comfortable. We stayed Labor Day weekend and no AC was no problem we just opened the windows at night. We enjoyed the breakfast voucher but only used it once since most days we left for Yellowstone early. We liked the seating and picnic tables outside. We liked not having to “check in” and just getting sent a door code. We would stay here again.

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.

The room was clean spacious and had a very nice kitchen area with a dishwasher!
Beds were comfy. No ac but had a fan and sleepy was pleasant.

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.
3.0
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.
4.0
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.

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

3. Operating procedure
Day before Check In you are told
Remote Only!!

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.

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.

Great little motel, very close to the West entrance of Yellowstone. Nice little kitchen was handy. Shower was a bit small but otherwise great base for seeing the park.

The motel was nice, modern, newly updated. A coffee shop or breakfast facility on sight would have been nice. Overall, I would stay again!

Everything was good, the only suggestion would be to provide dishwasher and change bed sheets if people are staying more than a day or two.

If you are staying here in the summer be prepared that the rooms have no AC units. They give you a fan for the room that does not cool the room at all. Honestly, if my stay wasn’t 14 hours away from home I wouldn’t have paid the amount I did for a place like this.
They did provide coffee in the rooms, 2 waters, and some candy that was very kind of them. It is located in the back of the town which is very nice to get out of traffic but still within minutes of town square and the West Yellowstone entrance.
5.0
The best "budget" hotel I've ever stayed at. It was clean, remodeled and had all amenities needed for a comfortable stay. There was even a little welcome present waiting for us upon arrival, some delicious local taffy.
4.0
The property was clean and new, and staff talked to was excellent with information, but during my 3 day stay, hosekeeping NEVER checked in with me to empty garbage or ask if I needed more towels. They were on the property each day but only seemed to clean empty rooms and then left.
Still a pleasant stay at a reasonable rate but a little weird about the housekeeping.

It was a pleasure staying at "The Lazy Duck" during my recent visit to West Yellowstone". The location was easy to find and Check-in was seamless. The room was clean, cute and well stocked for morning coffee. We appreciated the breakfast voucher to the "Old Town Cafe". Breakfast was great! We recommend "The Lazy Duck" for all future guests! Thank you so much for your hard work! The room was lovely!

The while family enjoyed our stay at the Lazy Duck Inn while skiing at Big Sky. Teenagers were very happy to not have to share a bed. Beds were very comfy. Lots of linens/towels provided. Very quiet location. The building is older but it was very clean and didn't feel "old"- we were very comfortable (new beds/bedding!). Great communication from managers and they even dug the grill out of storage so we could grill our steaks one night. Kitchen is small but it had everything we needed. The drive to and from Big Sky was light traffic (much easier than coming in from Bozeman). Loved this little sleepy town. Next time we will be sure to book a sled tour to complete our winter experience in West Yellowstone.

Wi-Fi signal is not good in room.
3.0
The room was very pleasant and clean, however, the Wi-Fi did not work at all. The TV volume was turned down so low that you could barely hear it even right in front of it and it took a good ten minutes of fooling with it to get it to where you could hear. There was no staff on the property to answer any questions and of course, no breakfast. For $310 a night, I would expect better. $109 of this was taxes and fees. I would never stay in West Yellowstone again. Cody, WY by the east entrance to Yellowstone is much more tourist friendly.
