Room OK, exterior not so
The place looked depressing from the outside. The first room we were given was a dark one on the ground floor. We asked for another one and got an end room on the second floor that was much lighter. The room was a bit small for the 2 queen beds but clean. Bathroom fine.Decore was good, but the whole thing a bit tight. Staff was very helpful.

Funky new place
This is a very new hotel. Still working out the kinks... the shower sprays out the door when you turn it on, the coffee maker should be in the room not the bathroom, the walls are thin but the beds are sooo comfortable. The step to the ground from the deck is a rock, this just cannot pass code.

Small, basic but very clean hotel
Very comfortable beds and very clean. Rooms are quite small. TV is huge with live streaming Apple TV. No breakfast available. Strange set up using rocks to step up to the porch which is not so handy in ice or snow or for kids.

6/10 Good

Good location near the entrance to Yellowstone. The room was sufficient, but lacked a few things. There was no table lamp, so we had to use the overhead light for nighttime reading. The television streaming and wifi was terrible. You are not able to watch live tv and shows were frequently interrupted. Download episodes or movies prior to your visit. There were prior spills on floor by the bed that were not cleaned (laminate floors, so they were not properly mopped).

Glad I got a deal
This is a nice hotel with a nice staff. I paid a little over $100 and was happy with that but that was at a significant discount. I would have been disappointed if I spent over $200. Otherwise, it was a nice convenient stay.

Small but comfortable room
The room is small, but offers everything we need including coffee maker, humidifier, mini fridge and microwave! The bed and pillows are comfortable. The Apple TV offers a variety of shows to watch. The hotel is located in a very convenient location for dinning and access to west gate of Yellowstone. My only complaint is you can easily hear noise from upstairs or when people are walking by.

2/10 Poor

Think twice about staying here
The worst lighting impossible to read. Hated the tv too confusing enable to get complete news programs. The office is unpainted utility closet. The checkin girl was nice and helpful. Did not like the memory foam mattress. All in all it was not worth the price we paid.

A decent place to sleep on your way in/out of Yell
It was one of very few inns In West Yellowstone with a room available on a short notice. From the street it looks like two 2-story detached apartment buildings. The 'reception office' is in the back of the 2nd building. It is actually a utility room with water heaters and a small desk. We have not seen any amenities execpt for the room. The room was crowded, but clean and well furnished. A staff member who showed us the room was very nice. Smart TV was hard to operate. Overall, a safe and clean place to crash for a night, but not much more.

2 star hotel, 4 star prices
Pros: Room was relatively clean and the bed was quite comfortable. Good location. Cons: Spent a day in Yellowstone, came back to the room to find the room door left open by housekeeping (I presume). Fortunately nothing was missing. It wasnt only our room, noticed other rooms were left open too. TV is useless. They use apple TV which is fine, but you cant watch anything for more than 3 minutes before the show pauses for several minutes. The rooms look very little like the pics. Recommend looking elsewhere at those prices.

Excels in customer service
Stay: 8 weeks ago The busiest week at Yellowstone National Park and we were able , on short notice, to find clean, comfortable , well appointed rooms at Tao's Inn . It is a few minutes drive from the west gate of the NP. We needed 2 rooms for 4 people. The staff put us in side by side rooms. This inn is within walking distance to downtown restaurants and shops. The beds and linens were luxurious; rooms appointed with most of the amenities you'd expect (microwave, wifi , fridge, internet television, hairdryer, Keurig coffee maker with an assortment of coffees and teas). The center yard has a picnic table in the shade for guest use. Mr. Lee was welcoming and available on the premises. He works to deliver excellent customer service. We would definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

Nice and Cozy
My Dad and I both really enjoyed Tao's Inn. The rooms were clean, we had everything we could possibly need, and the rooms were nice and warm at night without the use of the heater. We would definitely stay here again or recommend this place to others.

This hotel is set up to sleep
This hotel is functional place to sleep and is quiet. However the disappointment start with the check in office. Or should I say the lack of an appropriate place to check in. I realize that it rain/snowed while we were there, but parking lot with standing water in it,, was frustrating.

Dorm Rooms are better than this.
Don't know how this place gets 4 and 5 stars. Maybe other rooms are different, but ours only had the bed; no table, chairs, dresser, closet, etc. Microwave was on top of the mini-fridge, and that was the only horizontal space in the room. Coffeemaker was in a plastic basket under the sink in the bathroom. Only giving it the two star rating because of cleanliness. Office is literally the utility closet with pipes on the walls. No breakfast, no amenities, no elevator.

Way overpriced
Though the price seemed very high, thought we would "splash" out on someplace special. What a disappointment. There was no lobby...just a closet full of stuff. The rooms would have been ok for about $80 but not for adding up with tax at nearly $300. For that price I had expected luxury. Breakfast wasn't included (but I guess I knew that). The TV didn't offer regular channels...and we couldn't get what was offered to work. Overall, very disappointed....and to make matters worse, a week later we had another $40 taken off our card and when I phoned and asked them "What for?" They said that we had broken a lamp in the room.....which we DID NOT!!!! Do not stay here.
