    The venue was set in the central position adjacent to attactions in a beautiful town, and main shops, restaurants, bow river trail. Furthermore, to the Banff downtown core. Choose a double room with bathroom. We had a microwave, an electric kettle, and a fridge.

    great location
    uncomfortable mattress
    unhelpful staff

    Wonderful location with easy access to attractions.

    The mattress in the bunk bed was uncomfortable, and it was unsuitable for older adults, despite indicating that four adults would be staying. There was no flexibility regarding check-in time. The staff seemed uninterested in providing assistance or accommodating our requests.

    comfy bed
    great space
    cozy atmosphere
    noisy showers
    thin walls

    The Beautiful King Room was comfy with a great bed and good space. There was some noise from the showers in adjacent rooms, which woke us up a bit. The room had everything we needed for a cozy stay. A nice outdoor area to relax in after a long day. Susan, and we loved the unique breakfast she prepared each morning.

    spacious room
    delicious breakfast
    comfortable bed
    noise disturbance

    The room was spacious, with a super king bed that provided maximum comfort. Breakfast was a highlight, with delicious dishes like egg on an English muffin with avocado and homemade blueberry pancakes. The Inn's location allows for a quick walk to the main street, while still feeling tranquil. Susan, the host, fostered a warm atmosphere, joining us for breakfast .

    Occasional noise from neighboring rooms was slightly disruptive.
