We stayed IN the park at one of the Yellowstone lodges- not Old Faithful. It was nice, but very spartan. Dining is very limited in the park as well, but we had some excellent Chinese food in West Yellowstone- they get so many Chinese tourists, they have to be on their game.
In my opinion, 4 days is way too much time for Yellowstone park, unless you have some hikes or very specific things you want to do. You can hit all the main spots in 1-2 days, easy. I think 2 days is good, and would highly recommend the other 2 days in Grand Teton NP instead of 4 in YS. Stay in Teton Village and easily access the park. Very nice accommodations and excellent food available.
I enjoyed Teton more than Yellowstone (except for seeing bison!) You can hit Jackson as well- very nice town.
Enjoy and feel free to ask any more specific questions- the locals already responded so I thought I would give the tourist take!
