I noticed there were 96 reviews. Two were bad and one was terrible. In July, we stayed at West Yellowstone B and B for the second year in a row. the owner Debbie has been most accommodating. The rooms are spacious (including the bathrooms), clean and much of the furniture is made by her husband. The place is a comfortable rustic. I also have lower back issues and have difficulty sleeping in most beds without waking up and being stiff for hours. No problem here. The comfort level is 9.9923 out of ten. We also like that fact this is a small, family business making a go of it. We wanted to get up early and visit Yellowstone prior to the masses. Debbie was very gracious and had our excellent breakfast ready at seven a.m. Contrary to the one negative remark, for two years running we found the breakfast prepared perfectly. We appreciated the quality as well as the consideration of our wishes to have an early start. We are already making plans for a road trip next year and one of the reasons we will return is this bed and breakfast. Debbie also gives excellent restaurant recommendations.…

Yellowstone has been on our bucket list for years and we decided to stay here for 4 nights on a road trip from Denver to Seattle taking in 6 National The property is not obvious on arrival and just off the road with only a few houses close by. Our room was spacious, the bed huge and comes with a fridge and microwave We were both still recovering from altitude sickness (Rocky Mountain NP) so were particularly tired for the first couple of days Deborah was a great host and let us receive a call on her landline when my husband had a problem with his UK bank The blueberry pancakes for breakfast were very good and it was nice chatting to another couple of England Yellowstone is out of this world and we just wished we could spend more time there Would we return, yes, recommended

Loved staying here. Deborah was very hospitable and accomodating. Our room was so nice with sitting area and nice big bathroom with a great walk in shower. We had a choice of breakfast and she cooked our breakfast to perfection. We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed breakfast with our friends (traveling with us) as well as another guest staying at the B&B. Our drive in to West Yellowstone was not far at all and this B&B was wonderful.

Pros: • Quiet. • Clean, spacious room. • Delicious breakfast choices. • Short drive to West Yellowstone and park gate. • Competitive pricing. • Personalized attention from the host. Cons: • Not really a con, but internet speed was just okay. I did an extensive search for accommodations in the West Yellowstone area prior to my visit and kept circling back to the West Yellowstone Bed and Breakfast. I am SO glad I opted to stay here! It was peaceful, clean, comfortable, and felt very safe for a solo traveler. It also made a perfect base for exploring the area. WYBB is located just a few miles east of West Yellowstone, making for a quick and easy drive into town or to Yellowstone National Park. It is located right off Highway 20; however, traffic noise is minimal and did not bother me at all during my time there. Each of the three guest rooms has a private entrance and bath, along with a small refrigerator, microwave, and coffee maker with choices of coffee and tea. Log furniture has been handcrafted by Scott (one of the owners). The garden area offers a nice place to relax under the pine trees (weather permitting!). I stayed in the spacious upper level Queen Room with Garden View. This room has a very comfortable queen-sized bed as well as a fold-out futon to accommodate additional guests. The bathroom is roomy with a modern tiled shower. Storage for luggage and clothes was just right. Note: This room is accessible only by outside stairs, so it probably is not the best choice for someone with mobility issues. Breakfast is served from 7:00 am – 9:00 am. Guests may choose their breakfast time and select options from a short (but yummy!) menu. The variety of food choices should appeal to most guests. Breakfast can be brought to the room, or guests can dine in a lovely standalone breakfast solarium. I tried a couple of different items and found everything to be very good, with ample portions to sustain morning hikes. I did not get to meet Scott, but Deborah was an absolutely gracious, kind, and accommodating hostess. She offered great recommendations for dining in town, and was able to loan me bear spray and a small pair of binoculars for my time in the park. I particularly appreciated the tour guides and books in the room since they helped me fine-tune my daily plans. WYBB has free wi-fi, which to be honest can run a little slow at times, but then I was here to get away from things, not for ultra-high speed internet! There is also no television, but again, that’s not what I came for, so I didn’t miss it a bit. Hotels everywhere tend to be noisy and busy these days, even in the shoulder season. West Yellowstone Bed and Breakfast was a great choice for quiet, private, and safe lodging. The nightly rate was competitive with other area hotels and B&Bs, and well worth the money to have a stress-free, pleasant, and memorable stay. I look forward to going back! Tips: • Do a little research ahead of time on the many dining options available for lunch and dinner in West Yellowstone. Then ask the WYBB hosts for their opinions, as some online information for local eateries seems to be outdated. • It’s the Rocky Mountains. Pack for the possibility of all seasons in one day. Wear comfortable and sturdy footwear, even if you don’t think you’ll be doing much hiking. • Water and sunscreen are must-haves at this elevation! • Recommended: Visit the Grizzly and Wolf Discovery Center. Take time for a guided tour, watch the outdoor movies (weather permitting), and really read the information presented. It is a terrific educational experience for all ages.…

The overall property is run down and no up keep is done. There is construction going on at the property making it disturbing and we were not informed of the construction until we arrived .The owner didn't seem to care about the comfort of our stay ,but instead the progress of their construction. The room was uncomfortable , and there were two very uncomfortable old chairs .There was not a couch ,instead they had a very uncomfortable trundle bed which you could not sit on. There was no TV or radio or music available. The room was cold and the décor was dusty ,old and run down. The bathroom was small with no counter space and the shower was terrible and may have had some mold. There was a small coffee pot that was dirty and disgusting. The log furniture was very uncomfortable and you couldn't sit on it comfortably. The lighting was poor through out. The food was terrible ,they advertised how wonderful the food was . I am sorry , my kids cook better than these people. Lastly, we experienced a medical issue and told the owner that we needed to seek medical attention and leave and asked if we could receive a refund for the other nights booked and they refused even though we had concerns with Covid . I believe these people think that there location is so desirable , that people will accept the run down condition of the facility. Also, the two week no refund policy unfairly takes advantage of travelers who don't realize how terrible this place is until they arrive and then its to late to get a refund .They use false advertising by photo shopping the pictures and writing up a glamorous description of this place on there web site . Also, I would not be surprised if they had their friends write up great reviews on there web site . Please do not spend your hard earned money ( $ 225/night) at this place !! They post reviews of the previous owners reputation . The owner did tell us that if they were able to rent the room we would get a refund ,but they never took down the No vacancy sign.…

Brian, While we read your disgruntled review and sincerely appreciate your staying with us, the truth does need to be addressed. Your first reservation was for May 18-21, 2022 which was subsequently changed to May 23-26, 2022. We had the availability and were happy to accommodate. A week later, you requested a change to stay Memorial Day weekend and we were sold out part of the time, so we offered to give you a referral to accommodate your vacation plans. It’s your vacation, we want your visit to the area to be very memorable! Upon your arrival, 3 hours earlier than our normal check in, your room was ready and waiting and we tried to help get you settled into your room, help carry luggage and supplies from your rv and gave you numbers of repair shops locally and further out to repair your chipped windshield (this seemed very important to get fixed asap). You had requested a plug in for your camper but we are a B&B and do not offer those services. We referred to a nice local laundromat 5 minutes away as these services were needed, either drop off or self service. Upon your arrival, we gave you a choice to a larger room upgrade at no extra cost. You gladly accepted. The coffee pot was my fault as it was overlooked, I had a feeling you would be arriving early. Our property is always clean and we constantly strive to excel in offering our guests a new experience, so we built a breakfast solarium over the winter. We were a couple days short of finishing it before your arrival, my apologies. We showed it to you and you had commented on the personal touches, live edge wood and the creative space guests could enjoy. I thought you were sincere. The daybed couch is very comfortable but your wife’s feet would not touch the floor. After offering a couple of pillows behind her back, I could tell she was out of her element and just unhappy. The rooms are spring and fall cleaned, top to bottom, exquisitely cleaned and all linens, rugs etc. laundered regularly. This area is very dry so we don’t get mold like many other properties in those types of climates. We have a radio in the room (Wolf country is tuned) and installed the cable tv hookups but over the last 19 years, our guests prefer no tv but rather enjoy nature to get away from the media. You opted for room service breakfast versus joining us in the main dining area which has been a guest favorite over the years. You gladly thanked us for the yummy breakfast before starting out on your day in the pull behind Jeep. The lighting is perfect in the Queen Room w/ Garden View as you watch the sunrise in the east, enjoy the fan and overhead light, 3 lamp light in the corner of above the chair, (next to the fireplace), bedside stand lights with fish and creels, overhead light above the bed or 4 light vanity above the sink in the bathroom and shower light. There was not a medical issue brought to my attention and Covid was not mentioned as a concern. We have never photoshopped any photos, we are barely on social media as it can be severely skewed. We don’t encourage our guests to write reviews on any our behalf but only on their free will otherwise it seems too high pressure. It should be honest reviews with full disclosure on their time. We have been accredited with the BBB for years and morals and standards really matter to a couple of Iowa kids who moved to Montana 23 years ago. Your review stems from wanting to check out a day early during busy season and I always try to re-rent your room. If it doesn’t cost us anything, it shouldn’t cost you anything. Many facilities are not this kind. You next stay after the B&B was next door at the KOA campground, of which we referred you at your initial time of reservation. You inadvertently took our Yellowstone guidebook with you and kindly dropped it off the next morning in a bag hanging next to the front door. I would have told you we were unable to re rent your room but at this point, you didn’t seem approachable which was sad. I enjoyed visiting with you about your veterinarian position held in Colorado before your retirement to California and your likeness to homecooked meals. We tried our best to please but we live in an imperfect where people are dealing with much anxiety over the smallest most inordinate problems. Stay safe and healthy! From days old, remember honestly is always the best policy. Original owners and builders of 19 years, West Yellowstone Bed and Breakfast

We had a wonderful time at the West Yellowstone B&B this week. Deb, the owner, was an amazing host and was super helpful in keeping us up to date with all of the updates on the park after all of the flooding it had experienced earlier this year. We were on a 6 State motorcycle adventure ride and Deb made us feel more than welcome. She was incredibly accommodating to our entire group and was able to make us a wonderful breakfast super early to fit our schedule. There was plenty of room for all of our bikes and our friend's truck and trailer that was meeting us there for the night. The rooms were clean, super comfortable and the beds were great especially after a long day's ride. Deb recommended the Fire Hole BBQ place just few miles down the road for our dinner spot and we all agreed it was easily one of the best BBQ places we have ever been to! A sincere thank you to Deb for having us and for being super helpful answering all of our park questions leading up to the trip and for making some great recommendations while we were there. It made our trip to Yellowstone even better than we planned! We will for sure stay here again when we come back to visit the park!…

This small B&B is located about 5 miles outside the town of West Yellowstone, in the Gallatin National Forest. Since the B&B wasn't full the nights I was there, Deborah gave me the choice of upgrading to the King room for no extra charge, a very nice offer. During my three-night stay, Deborah and her husband, Scott, could not have been more welcoming and helpful. Although it was May, there was substantial snow two of my three nights - so Deborah helped me get the snow and ice off my car in the mornings, and asked me to share dinner with the family on my last night so I wouldn't have to brave the snow and ice on a drive into town. Scott, who is a fishing guide (among other things - he's a true Renaissance man!) regaled me with stories of trips past, and both Scott and Deborah gave me suggestions of places to see "off the beaten path." Deborah even lent me a can of bear spray (these are sold for $50 or so, and you can't take it on a plane, so this was a not insignificant savings for me). Now to the room. The bed was quite comfortable, and I loved the gas fireplace. The bathroom was very large (the king room is ADA accessible); water pressure in the shower was great and there was plentiful hot water. The room also has a little dining area, if you want to eat in the room. Really enjoyed my stay and recommend West Yellowstone B&B very highly!…

Deborah could not have been a more pleasant, helpful or accommodating host. The Bed and Breakfast was a short drive from town and provided a little haven from the busy downtown area. Our room was spotless and quite large. It was well-equipped with everything we needed. There was a nice selection of breakfast options to choose from and the delicious meals were brought right to our rooms (an understandable accommodation due to covid). Deborah kindly provided bear spray and binoculars (my husband liked the binoculars so much, I just ordered him the identical set for his birthday!) for our day trip into Yellowstone National Park. We had a very nice stay here!

The room I had was far larger than a standard hotel room. The owner of the property was extremely friendly! The room was also quieter than I expected based on how close to the road it was. I would pick staying here over other hotels in the area at the same price. I wish there was some more insulation between the lower and upper floor though! The people above us got up at 5am when we set our alarm for 730am. They moved around in their room for an hour and a half before leaving which woke me up and kept me awake. I did not get enough sleep that night because of this. I would request a room upstairs next time so I would not encounter this problem again.

Thank you Alex for staying with us! Pleasure to meet your family! Over the 18 years, we have installed an acoustic floor in the second floor along with area rugs which help significantly to reduce noise. With it being extremely quiet in the Gallatin National Forest, a person could potentially hear a pin drop in the night. As we travel, no matter the accommodations, timeshare, hotel room, KOA cabin, we always hear the neighbors. Comforting in a way! Thank you again!

Deborah is AMAZING!! The king room is so spacious and super clean!!! She thought of everything!! The bathroom in this room is so large and filled with great amenities. The bed was comfortable. With the window raised at night, no air conditioner was needed. In fact, we turned the fireplace on in the morning to get the chill out!! We slept great. The breakfast Deborah cook and brought to our room was fantastic. We got to choose from a menu, and she hand delivered it at the time we requested. NOW, that is service!! We only stayed one night, but wish we could have stayed longer. It is a little out of town, but it is quiet and away from the touristy area, and it is not a far drive into town. We LOVED it!!!!!!
