We really appreciated the three beds and the kitchenette in the room. The property is nice and quiet and close to downtown. The staff at the front desk was very nice. The bathroom needs to have hooks for the bath towels.

Beautiful view and a quiet location. It was nice to have a kitchenette. A little bit of room was smelly (for the cooking) but other than that we enjoyed the stay.

We had an amazing stay. The room was clean and had everything we needed. I was a little hesitant about staying this far from downtown Banff but having the complimentary bus passes was a huge bonus. It was faster to take the bus for a couple minutes than it is to walk from some closer hotels. Would absolutely stay here again. The hotel having bear spray for guests to use was so convenient as well.
