Was not worth the stay
Pros:

It was close to the North Entrance to Yellowstone National Park.

Cons:

Had to go up stairs, the floor felt like it was going to fall through and the beds were lumpy.

Perfect stay at the North Entrance to Yellowstone.
Pros:

Our room had a beautiful view of the river, the beds were comfortable, staff was very friendly and accommodating. My son also enjoyed the game room, pool and hot tub. We were very close to the North Entrance to Yellowstone.

Cons:

Everything was great. If I could change anything, maybe it would be a complimentary breakfast, but that's definitely not a big deal for me.

Poorly explained. Seemed like something much better
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Overpriced and poorly rated as “4 stars”.
This is really a motel, old room, old carpet. We paid $360 for one night for this. We would like to have a partial refund

This "hotel" didn't meet our expectations
Pros:

My kids liked the pool that they had

Cons:

I was expecting more according to the photos of the place. And the room I reserved should have been with a river view, but that was actually a joke, most of the windows just point to the parking lot with no river to be seen. And I would call this place more of a motel than a hotel, not even breakfast included for the price they charge.

Hoping to return
Pros:

The staff was friendly helpful. The facility was clean meeting expectations of weary travelers with free laundry. The added edition of binoculars and walking stick was amazing and the availability of biking the scenery was lovely. The area was close to many different things all around. We hope to come back.

Cons:

Nothing

Very nice stay, especially to be close to Yellowstone. Decent price for location too.
Pros:

The location was beautiful. We had a room facing the Yellowstone river. So much wildlife. The room was very clean, and I was not expecting the housekeepers to come and make our beds in the morning. That was a very nice touch. The spa and game room were nice, we didn’t get a chance to use it.

Cons:

The shower and toilet area was very small. I’m not a big person but I feel like the sore should open into the room instead of into the bathroom.

Best service in town.
Pros:

We stayed with our grandson for 2 nights at the north entrance of Yellowstone. He has stayed at the finest hotels in the US and Europe, but said he enjoyed this Gardner motel more. The ladies at the desk made us all feel welcomed and informed. They provided the ingredients for s'mores at the fire pit, they offer free, clean washers and dryers…..indoor pool is a welcome relief after a day in the park, as is the outdoor hot tub. Service with a smile.
