Room was clean, fair price for the stay. Will stay here again. Only downside, for the room we recieved with it backing on to the Main Street/bar, you could hear a lot of peoples conversations.

The room inside looks good and cozy, but they need to make the looks of the outside prettier and modern for the price you're paying. Overall, its an average stay

6/10 Good

Great location - overpriced for the quality

This was one of the more affordable options in Canmore for a couple of days exploring Banff. The reviews were decent, and the location was great, but upon checking in, we were disappointed with the quality of the room for almost $ 400 a night. The beds were decent and clean, but the room was run-down. The bathroom felt old and dingy, and there was no AC, only a beat-up fan that creaked along in the corner. It's a fine place to stay if your expectations are low for a quick motel but the price point felt insane - it's too bad they can't make some simple updates to the room to get away with those types of charges and I can't imagine the rates on a weekend if that was the price point for a midweek stay.
Morgan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The stay was great. The room view was amazing.
Tayyaba, 1-night trip

Reading previous reviews it was unnaturally hot overnight despite turning down the thermostat all the way. Otherwise a great affordable stay.

Place needs a renovation
Baljinder, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Really enjoyed our stay, especially for the very reasonable price compared to other hotels in the area. The lady at the front desk was so so kind, we traveled with 2 dogs and an infant and she was very accommodating and helpful, from letting us check in early, to holding the paperwork still while I had a baby strapped to me. She even upgraded our room which was so appreciated! The room could’ve used some more mopping and dusting, as well as not having watered down hand soap, but besides that, we are very happy with our stay and would recommend to others!
