Rooms have heaters and air conditioners that both need to work to keep room at normal temperature. Heater heats up too hot, so A/C needs to run every 10 minutes at a VERY LOUD NOISE, to keep room habitable. Reminds a Flinstone operation .

Parking is limited and very tight for larger vehicles, typical for Banff though. Hotel is showing its age and room cleaniness could be improved. Carpets and walls in the room had some brown stains. The top side of the bathroom sink cabinet doors was yellow... also, the hot tub could of used some cleaning.

As others have said you dont get alot for your money. Its a basic hotel. The red carpet itseld has no reception and you have to check in/out at the hotel next door. The hotel had no facilities itself. other than parking. However the room was nice, decent size and clean and spacious bathroom. Good location. Town centre is an easy walk and there is public transport nearby. Fine for a short stay.

Mid-range option for Banff
This hotel is located in the quieter section of Banff but still within walking distance to most dining and shopping options in town. Good room size with a sizeable bathroom and limited view of the Rockies. Breakfast was not included but its restaurant boasts for serving the best in town. Parking is free too. It would be great if there was a kettle for boiling water.

No Frills, Walk to Town
No frills hotel option walking distance from downtown Banff. Negatives: creaky spring mattresses, loud A/C and street noise, old TV, first floor smelled like smoke, no elevator to parking garage. Positives: Saved hundreds of dollars compared to the big lodges, big free parking garage good shower and soaps, nice chair, Keurig/K-cups, big room. Overall worth it for an overnight or short stay from Calgary but I wouldn't book for your honeymoon here.

The outrageously high price for the room did not at all correspond to the low quality of the hotel or the room itself. This is an old building that has not been updated in a number of years. The floor creaked, there was the smell of cigarette smoke in the hallway, wallpaper was peeling, etc, etc
