The room was clean and tidy and perfect for the price. No breakfast included, but all restaurants, coffee shop and shopping closeby. It was quiet except the room doors are very noisy when they fall shut and the hotel started cleaning up the rooms fairly early the next morning, so it was loud in the hallway. Maybe

The ONLY decent part about this hotel was the location. This hotel was grossly over priced, not clean, no plug ins available, no AC (which we knew) noisy fans, a screen that kept falling out on the 3rd floor. Book elsewhere!

They are simply charging a RIDICULOUS fee for this hotel. This is at best a 2 star hotel and they are charging 4 star prices. Rooms are tiny, beds are tiny, hotel is a minor 1970's upgrade. I've never had a hotel where I felt like what I paid was so completely out of step with what I received. Stay somewhere else - even paying a bit more for a proper hotel is worth it, otherwise you will feel incredibly ripped off.

Front desk was really nice and accommodating. thumbs down: - narrow hallway - two twin beds needs to be replace very uncomfortable to sleep, as it has a very limp/soft spot in the middle had to put winter jacket - the parking is not adjacent to the hotel - hotel needs to overhaul

The location is perfect, parking is ok. The room is tiny and renovated. They need better mattresses. And update the tub showers. Very good but basic hotel for Banff. I would definitely stay here again for convenience and efficiency. Front desk staff are very nice and helpful.

Location is great if you don't mind worn out beds

The location of this hotel is amazing for those looking for access to downtown Banff however the beds were horrible. Mattresses were so worn out that you fell into a hole in the center, rolling into each other all night, no support for your back etc.

Ok if you just need somewhere to stay

Room was clean, staff was friendly, good location. It was fine for one night but the bed was not very comfortable. Bedding was very low quality, especially the pillows which were also too small/weird size for a queen bed. Guests should also note that the street where the loading zone for check in would be, is closed to vehicles in the summer months.

Poor noise insulation between rooms means you hear the youngsters partying in other rooms until 4 in the morning. Great location, but hard to get a good night's sleep.
