Affordable in Banff

An affordable option in Banff that is not too far from downtown. The staff didn't help much so don't count on them for info. The pool is fine but not as nice as it looks online. The lobby coffee machine was fantastic.

Suited our purpose. We were driving through and just needed a place for the night that would accept our dog as well. We crashed late and left early. Room was clean, staff were hospitable, breakfast was satisfying.

I liked the convenient underground parking, proximity to the main street and view from the balcony of the mountains. I wish the bed had been more comfortable. The mattress was quite firm which affected my sleep. Everything else with the room was excellent.
