Just stayed in 2 different rooms at this older in-town motel. Both were super-clean, with good bedding; I slept well. The rooms are themed with different animals that are associated with this area, like bison, bear, mustang, elk, deer, etc.. Both rooms had a flat-screen TV and a DVD player, although I'm told not all do. They have adequate kitchens... More

Stayed there last summer for an event with friends. Old theme room hotel. Staff was great, room was clean and was in a good location. My room was rather small but functional. Only drawback was that there reallly wasn't a place outside to gather with the friends in the evening outside of the parking lot, though they have a good... More

Thank you for your review. We have tried several options with our outdoor area. To increase parking spaces we have had to restrict that area. It is currently a playground/tetherball area. Covers do not work well in this environment, we have lost several gazebos to winds. We will continue to evaluate this space and see if there is a more... More

The oily rag that was left on the bed served as an indicative symbol of our stay at this inn. We stayed one night in the "Bear" room as we traveled cross country. Photos online of the inn make it look quaint, but unfortunately it's run down, antiquated and with the exception of the linens, didn't seem to have been... More

I am sorry that your room was less than you expected. If you ever have an issue at any hotel, please contact the Front Desk and give them a chance to resolve it for you. We could have come in and taken care of these issues, or moved you to a more acceptable room. Beds are also an area where... More

The Elk Run is an old, strip motel with uniquely decorated rooms, all with full kitchens. We had a "Queen" room (the bed looked kind of small to be called a Queen) which also had a small table with 2 chairs. The tap water in the room had a foul taste so we bought a couple gallons of bottled water... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am sorry about the water - we are on city water and some people are more suseptable to whatever is used to treat the water. Just know that the water was safe, even if you did not like the taste. Usually when there is a problem with rates it... More

Had a great "night away" here. Totally reasonably priced, with all kinds of cute kitchy rooms. We stayed in the bear room. Had a great hand made bear themed quilt on the wall, bear paintings and even a bear bedspread. The kitchen was very well appointed, even had a little oven.

Probably most tourists coming to quiet and non-pretentious Craig - Wyoming are traveling to, or coming from, Yellowstone. The small town does not have special attractions. On our way to Yellowstone we found this Inn a good choice. The owner was very friendly and helpful.
