Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
It`s a nice little hotel with super friendly staff. Especially the receptionist was amazing. He gave us pretty helpful tips and informations about what to do in the area and he also took the time to show us everything on different maps. If we will come back at any time in the future we would def. stay here again.
Enjoyed my stay here very much. The staff was very friendly. The room was exactly what I needed for exploring Yoho and Glacier National Parks. The complimentary oatmeal and tea was perfect before heading out in the mornings. The best part was this area did not have the crowds of the more popular areas, but there was still plenty to do.
Bunk beds were ok, a bit small for 4 adults n 2 kids
The staff were nice
A couple of items when catering to family with young kids
Larger table an d couple more chairs

It’s a good stay but, like other reviewers note, the rooms aren’t very insulated from each other for sound. As a result it’s luck of the drawer on whether you have a peaceful stay or not. We could hear noise from other rooms clearly early in the evening but thankfully everyone respected the designated quiet hours. It wouldn’t put me off staying again but best to manage your expectations in this regard.
Beautiful Lobby- Lodge like :) Nice tea & coffee area. Easy parking , smaller hotel . Nice views.
Only improvement would be that the walls are thin - heard our loud talking neighbors.
Beautiful site and building...but lack in finish...great furnishings but a ill fitted shower curtain instead of door on shower ,ac sitting on a chair with exaust taped to window..no working phones in rooms...said there a hot tub but not even one on premises. Curfew not respected...all that fo
r twice the price of comparable stays ive been in! Needs work and/better price...not a family spot but good for couple.Staff are very friendly
We were not prepared for the noisy AC units in the rooms. Each room as on as an add on. The original building is beautiful but was not designed from a heating/AC perspective properly.

The lobby is very nice. The room was cramped, with no seating other than a bench. Sorry we booked this
