    The facilities are showing their age but I knew that before booking from other reviews and accepted…read morethe fact since this was one of the few motels that accept pets in the Lyman, WY area. We planned to visit the Fort Bridger Historical Site (great place!) the following day before heading on into Utah so this motel was well located. All things considered I would recommend this motel. Although we were surprised by their Contactless Check-In process (we arrived around 7pm on a Sunday night) we were able to quickly check-in and enter our room (#206). It was nice to not have to keep track of a hotel room card for entry to our room. However I wondered if they change the room codes between guests? I've encountered this keypad lock system at another motel and that place used the last 4 digits of my phone number for room entry which gave me an extra feeling of having a unique security access code. There were about 4-5 other rooms occupied the night we stayed there so I can't comment on noise issues commented by another reviewer as we were not disturbed and slept through the night easily. The bed was very comfortable but might be a little too tall for shorter guests to easily climb into. The wood pole framing has to be climbed over to reach the mattress but for 1 night it was not an issue. I just wouldn't buy a bed like that. We walked our dog around the block. Not much to see but homes and yards but the people we spoke to were friendly and seemed used to seeing Gateway guests. What We Disliked * The carpeted flooring just looks dirty since there are stains that they apparently can't get out. Replacing the carpet with vinyl planking in the room would slightly modernize it and make it appear to be better kept up. Looking at their Guest Informational Binder it needs to be updated. The Pet Policy fee is no longer $10 (now $25) so I wondered what other information in it was outdated and useless for their guests? Before booking I looked at available restaurants in Lyman since we'd want to have a supper that night. Finding few choices in Lyman we made sure to stop further up the road in Evanston, WY to eat.

    An okay place to stay for a night. Safe, secure, private, and comfortable. A few options nearby if…read moreyou're looking for a bite to eat. Cons: In the morning when I woke up, there were bugs all over the bathroom.

    This hotel/motel is just cool! It was built in 1951. I didn't expect it when I decided to stay…read morehere, we just needed a room in Evanston that was dog friendly. When you drive around, from checking in, to find your room, you go back in time! It was a very memorable flashback from when I was a kid. The room was very large, the bathroom is very small, and there was a phone in the bathroom as well as the one expected by the bed; not sure why, but it was a little funny. Compared to a newly built hotel in the same price range, this was more comfortable. The restaurant is obviously renowned with the local community! The restaurant has that smell of a decades old, high-end restaurant; if you're not familiar with that smell, it is a very pleasant smell of wonderful cooking that has saturated the restaurant over decades. Everyone was polite and dressed nicely (the staff).

    The bed itself was not comfortable. My back and my wife's back are both laying the price for it…read morethis morning. Keeping the room a good temperature was a challenge so it was a lot of freeing and sweating as you get up in the middle of the night to adjust it. There was two containers of food in the fridge from a prior occupant. Speaking of the fridge it froze our pizza overnight. Good thing there was a mini microwave in the room that could hold a single slice of pizza. Also, there was leg hairs in the tub this morning when we went to take a shower. Overall, I would give this place a pass. In good weather where you don't need an air conditioner or a heater to stay comfortable overnight and the room was clean I bet it would be ok. The tv doesn't allow you to watch Netflix on it unless you cast to it. There's only YouTube and other Google properties installed on it.

    My wife had a very long day, a Saturday, getting up at 3 am at our home in Boise, ID, flying to…read moreDenver to purchase a car, then driving it back to our home. I asked AI what a good halfway point would be for us to bed down for the night, and Evanston, WY, was recommended. On our drive up, I researched the hotels in Evanston and settled on the Holiday Inn Express, based on the reviews. I was able to get a room with two queen beds at a very reasonable rate. We rolled into Evanston about 9:30 pm. Parking is free and there is plenty of it. Weston was at the front desk, a very friendly gentleman who had been working hard but was still personable and attentive. He very graciously, and without asking, put us on the third floor away from I-80. There are a few restaurants within walking distance, and the one we patronized, The Lincoln Highway Tavern, I recommend. Our room was clean, a must for my wife, spacious, and very nice. The beds were reasonably comfortable (I never sleep well away from home), and the room had the usual amenities, including a mini fridge, microwave, and hairdryer. The bathroom shower was a standard size, the water was hot and the pressure was adequate, and the bathroom fan worked well. It was very quiet; no complaints of noise. We did partake of the complimentary breakfast, which was open at 6:30 on Sunday, earlier than I'm used to, but very much appreciated since we wanted to get on the road quickly. The coffee was decent, the OJ yummy, and the scrambled eggs and biscuits were OK. The bacon was crispy but lukewarm, and the sausage, like so many hotels, appeared to be steamed instead of grilled, and was cold. The Hispanic woman attending the breakfast area was very nice. The female desk clerk checking us out was also pleasant. In the future, on trips to visit our son and his wife in Ft. Collins, we would definitely stay here again. It's a gem.

    I was not expecting much from a HI Express, but given the nightly rate: I sure did expect more than…read moreI got. There are not many options in the area, so I guess they get away with charging a premium rate, but at least try to deliver premium service. Not much going on around the property and no sitting area around the property to enjoy an evening. Last time in the area, I just chose to stay in Park City, pay less to stay in a Sheraton and make the drive to WY.

It's high desert, middle of nowhere and a welcome sight to get a meal, fuel & park for the night. The RV park is spacious, with wide roads to maneuver. Sites are gravel, level & easy in/out for our 43 ft Class A Coach. Check in at the Hotel Registration Lobby. Easy enough. We set up the Coach and made it to the Lobby Bar, which opens at 3:00.... Karen was our Bartender. Friendly person.... we had a couple good conversations with some truckers that had parked in the Truck section. After we had a couple of beers...... we grabbed our ice cream cone for .75 cents and headed back to the Coach. Happy campers !!

It has everything you need - gas, very comfortable lodging (including for RVs if you're carrying your own lodging), a general store, restaurant, bar, and soft serve. There is enough pavement around the property to get a decent walk in. The value for what you get in lodging is far and away the best I've seen in years. No IKEA furniture falling apart in the closet here (throwing shade at Marriott chains in this price range). There's a wood dresser, solid beds with comfortable mattresses, many different types of pillows, comfortable seating, a LOT of space, a real bathtub, and multiple sinks (in and out of the bathroom). We stayed for a full day and 2 nights during a snowstorm. They are very efficient in removing snow so people can move around both with their vehicles and feet. There is nothing to DO here, but you can eat at the restaurant nearly 24/7 and they do have a pretty typical hotel gym. We saw the manager responding to a complaint about a dog that had been left alone in a room and was barking up a storm at 10pm. There is at least one entire building where pets aren't allowed, so if you're not interested in ending up like the poor guy making the complaint, ask the desk clerk about availability in the pet-free building(s) when you call for reservation or check in.
