The property was newly refurbished and very clean. The continental breakfast was disappointing- mostly carbs with no eggs or meat, and very little milk.

The staff was amazing from check in to check out. They were super helpful and very friendly. Also the amenities were above and beyond what we expected from the larger mini fridge and ample storage in the room to the breakfast choices with 24 hour coffee. Our room and the public areas were super clean, I have never seen a cleaner laundry area! We will be sure to recommend to all our friends.

Stayed in Mountain Vista for 5 days for my recent family trip. Love the place for the helpful staff. The location is good , 10 mins from west entrance. The only suggestion I have is to have one more microwave in the breakfast areas as most people are trying to get the breakfast around the same time and heading to the NP.

We liked the proximity to West Yellowstone and the entrance to Yellowstone. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. We had a room with an adjoining door. We could hear our neighbors' TV and could even understand their conversations. Luckily they settled down around the time we did, but it felt quite intrusive.
