I picked this motel because of its low room rate (including the AAA discount). I was not expecting much, but just a room to spend the night since I was going to be at Banff NP most of the time.
I could not get a confirmed non-smoking room when I made the reservation. We were given a room which was marked non-smoking, but had the distinct smell of a previous smoking room painted over. We asked the front desk to give us a different one and they accomodated promptly though the motel was sold out for the Jul1st-4th weekend (May be I should start asking for a 'non-smoked' room rather than non-smoking). The room was big, had a working microwave and a refridgerator and a nice view to the lawn behind. The location is very near to downtown (10mins walk). Canmore has quite a few good restaurants and most of them are within walking distance from this hotel. The only negative thing I can pick on is, thin walls. The loud neighbor's were very audible though we did not hear any traffic or outside noise.
For a sub-$100 room (on a busy weekend), this hotel exceeded my expecations... enough to motivate me to write this review.
