Parking spots are very tight, but not impossible. You will likely need to fold both of your mirrors. Great location if you are visiting Banff.

An old and shoddy building with a poorly equipped "gym" (it barely qualifies as one) that smells so bad you won't want to use it and a small outdoor hot tub with no view (except for the balcony that's right above). It's like one of those roadside motels, except more expensive. I had an updated unit, so it didn't look as bad as the building does, but the upgrades were poorly done and cheap. Parking is an issue since there's no guaranteed parking space and the design of the covered spaces makes it difficult for people to park and open their doors to get out. So, people end up parking off center, making it even harder for the next space. And if you're not lucky enough to get a space, you're looking for street parking and walking. It's a long walk into town, but doable. We ended up driving in every time. Way too overpriced to be this shoddy and not have parking. I'd never stay here again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone either.

We rented a place here for 6 months and I think the hot tub was open maybe once in that time. Unit is great and it's always wonderful getting away from the city, but the hot tub being closed for maintenance for 6 months is a stretch. I'm thinking at this point it's not coming back and this place just does not offer a hot tub anymore. If a hot tub is not important to you though - this is a nice place. Rooms are dark and comfortable, kitchens are fully equipped.

It's a great location with nice big rooms. The appliances are new and in good condition. Washer and dryer are super helpful, and the second floor balcony is a great place to enjoy the amazing mountain views. The provided parking is very tight and will be problematic for anything but compact cars. Luckily there was plenty of space to park on the street close by.
