Fodor's Review:

Unattractive and unassuming, these pine-frame cabins are mostly in clusters of four, six, and eight units. Their popularity is a testament to their location. They have been upgraded recently, so all now have private bathrooms (some with baths, others with showers only), and higher-end cabins also have knotty-pine bedframes, hand sinks, and coffeemakers. Even the lowest-priced cabins are worth the price for the location—you're less than 30 minutes away from Lamar Valley, Hayden Valley, and Lake Yellowstone; Old Faithful is less than 45 minutes away—but the cabins are on so many several loops and cul-de-sacs that it's possible to forget you're in a national park. Pros: Affordability, location. Cons: Too much asphalt, too many neighbors.

Don't expect the comfort of a chain...
But Frontier cabins are large, clean and quite.
Bathrooms are showers but of good size.
No phone, no A/C, no TV.
We were in M2-2 and M2-4, far from traffic.
Price is correct for a park : 96 $/night.
Decent restaurant for dinner, no good breakfast in the restaurant, the deli or the small diner in the shop...

It would have been nice to have some outdoor furniture or tables to eat outside. We had a large family gathering with four cabins next to each other, but there was nowhere to comfortably gather.
