Excellent

Great stay in this reno'ed motel. Comfy bed, convenient parking, and great spot to explore Canmore on foot.
A few friendly pieces of advice to make this an even better stay: wastepaper basket in bathroom, instructions for "smart tv" so that you can screencast, more coffee pods.
Thanks for the great stay.
We came there with our dog and it was a great choice! Everything is close to this location and lots of places to walk around. Clean rooms and nicely decorated. I strongly recommend and will come back there in the future
Our check in experience was not smooth at all. No one worked at this motel and the office was closed due to construction. When we called the number no one answered, we called many times. We couldn't check into our room without the code -- we never received the code/check in information via email 24hrs prior like we were supposed to.
So disorganized and unsettling.
The location and room was good

Great location but room needs some TLC
Excellent location in downtown. Really appreciated the Nespresso set up. The bed was comfortable. Unfortunately, the room was not very clean. The shower drain was extremely slow draining, the shower curtain appeared to be stained from the toilet, and the refrigerator wouldn’t get cold.

Unfortunately, the carpets in the room were wet during our entire stay. We alerted the front desk and they told us that this is a result of humidity and the concrete floors below the carpet. As a result, the room smelled musty and we couldn’t leave our stuff on the floor without getting damp.
Was not portrayed as a Motel, pictures on line make the room look much bigger, so was shocked when we saw how small the room was, but overall it met our needs for the one night.
Easy parking on site. Self check-in was a great feature. Room was spotless clean even the washroom. AC and TV worked great. Their hot tub was a nice treat after a tiring day. I just wish their pillows could be wider and more comfortable. The room could also use a microwave for guest convenience. Hotel is easily walkable to many shops and restaurants as you are right in the heart of Canmore. Overall nice stay!
