Teton Hostel HideAway

Beautiful Stay The place was beautiful, clean and staff has been extremely friendly. 10/10 Such a nice experience

The Hideaway Hostel is a very good value with a location 20 minutes from the Grand Targhee Resort (my focus) and about 5 minutes from Driggs ID. I stayed in one of the private rooms (there are mult-person bunkrooms on the lower level) which was a large room with comfortable bed, DirecTV, a futon, and a very large en suite bathroom with shower and jetted tub. There is a pleasant sitting area on the main floor and an equipped kitchen so guests can fix their own meals (the grocery store in Driggs has lots of good ready-to-heat meals). A continental breakfast is provided.

Neighbors were loading hay with heavy equipment next door after dark and before first light. Notes all over for “Do’s and Don’ts”Ceiling fan didn’t work in the room. If you took more than one orange or a cup of coffee to go, you were expected to leave cash (corresponding price list on the counter). Couple of positives…. The view was great and the bathroom floors were heated.

I liked the whole design of the hostel. The smell of chicken soup lingered in the air. Everything was well executed and clean. Please put WD40 on the hinges of green/blue room .

A friendly hostel and a good night's sleep This is a lovely hostel. If you hoped for a full service hotel, this isn't it. There are shared bunking rooms, private rooms with bath shared with others and a couple private rooms with their own bath. Yes, continental breakfast foods are provided but it's self-serve: make the Keurig cup of coffee yourself, get the english muffin or bagel and put it in the toaster yourself, and get the yogurt from the fridge yourself. With those expectations in place, the blue/green room with shared bath was very comfortable. We had a few great conversations with other guests. Beth, the owner and host was around in the evening and we enjoyed brief conversation with her. I'm not sure but thinking it would not be a great place for kids or for someone with ADA accessibility needs. There are a number of rules Beth keeps to preserve general sanity and enjoyment for all...for example, no late-night loads of laundry (yes, for a few bucks, you can do your laundry while there.) One guest requested to start a load in the 9 p.m. hour. She advised all laundry must be wrapped up by "quiet hours" and suggested the guest use the express wash setting to make the deadline. Our room was directly below the laundry room and we truly appreciated Beth's rule in this case as laundry/water noises were quiet loud in our room, but all was peaceful and quiet by quiet time. We slept very comfortably and would recommend this hostel to anyone not seeking full service hotel amenities.

House is beautiful... just what I would expect being near the mountains!
