Travelodge by Wyndham Bill WY Thunder Basin Ntl Grassland

Not a bad place but know what you’re getting into. A hotel built for train employees to sleep at. It’s in the middle of nowhere so make sure you have everything you need before making your way to the hotel. Check in was through the diner which is at the front of the hotel. Staff was nice enough at check in Room was clean but small. Beds were pretty comfortable. It was very quiet. Almost creepily quiet. Going outside can seem a bit eerie at night but the property is well lit on all sides. There is a Union Pacific crew break room on site. Looked nice but I could only see through the window. WiFi and satellite tv worked surprisingly well considering remoteness. We had dinner at the diner. It was tasty; similar to Waffle House. Dinner for two with juice was $33. Some folks complained online it was pricy but I suppose I’m use to that type of pricing back home in Denver. Loved the playful sass and banter from the employees. Our cook (who doubled as the hotel front desk) asked us to not order anything difficult to make. Ha! She confirmed our orders were simple enough. If you’re passing through, I’d recommend a stop here. Just know you’re limited to food from a diner and vending machine. (Odd item in the vending machine next to the candy: canned fish?)

It was nice and friendly people

This place is a great place if you need to rest for the night. While the property itself is a bit dated, it is still perfectly functional and adequate. Being out in the middle of nowhere, it's safe and extremely quiet. The 24hr attached diner is also very convenient. Most hotels stop breakfast at around 9am, and being the night owl that I am, I often times never wake up in time. I liked how I'm able to go get a nice hot meal any time of day. The price per room is also a good value as well. Overall a solid hotel. Would stay here again.

The staff here are always great, friendly, and so happy to help with whatever is needed. The rooms are always clean and I love that they have cribs for our baby. Unfortunately there is really nothing around the area - but that’s not the hotels fault. The only thing I do wish - and honestly I’m not sure that it’s even possible, but I do wish they had some rooms with king size beds. Otherwise though- this is a really nice little hotel when you need to stay in the middle of nowhere and the diner is so cute and has delicious food.

Asked 3 times for another pillow and still did not receive ! Had to check in in a diner and it is in the middle of nowhere even tho it has a Douglas address

The staff members were great and super helpful.

To consider this property as being in Douglas is a mistake; it is 40 miles north of town on a minor road. That fact was not evident from the listing in Hotels.com, possibly because in Wyoming zip codes cover vast territories. I recommend the listing be clarified. The hotel is managed from the adjacent diner (which is an excellent 24-hour resource), and there is no security in the lobby. Though we seemed to be the only guests, we were not able to have a ground floor room, since most of the property is contracted to the Union Pacific Railroad, whether being used or not. The bed had been made up but not the bathroom; we found a housekeeper's cart parked outside a hallway with all the doors open and helped ourselves to towels, soap, shampoo and toilet paper. There was no elevator, no ice machine. No other activity is nearby except the Union Pacific railyard. This was not the convenient overnight stop on our cross-country roadtrip that we anticipated.

Room was not clean. Shower had significant amount of hair all over. The staff was very slow to respond to issues with the room. My key didn't work for three days, and I had to wait for front desk to open the door every time I left my room. I was there nearly two weeks and the cleaning staff never cleaned my room even after requesting three times.

Stayed here on two seperate days during a recent trip. The staff had a horrible time linking up with Expedia. The one luggage cart was broken. The entrance was dirty.
