“I noted that while some rooms are dated, renovated bathrooms and mountain views from creekside rooms are definite highlights. The location is ideal, just steps from the main pedestrian street, though some previous guests experienced noise issues that management should address. For a moderately priced stay in Canmore, it holds appeal, but be sure to confirm the status of on-site amenities beforehand.”

super cutecute staffgood fooddated furniturebathroom moldopaque window
the room was super cute, i found it quite unexpected. i also loved that the staff was cute, a real treat. the restaurant served good food, i must admit.
the furniture are very dated, i feel a replacing is needed. i also noticed mold in the bathroom caulking around the bathtub, i think it needs addressing. the window was opaque, it obscured the view of the mountains.
