This apartment is perfect for a ski trip to Banff. It is has a huge well-lit living area with a full kitchen, two large bedrooms with plenty of room and storage, and a large bathroom. Also has a full laundry available and excellent outside ski storage locker. It appears fairly new, having been built or remodeled in the last few years. It is a 10 minute walk to the ski area and local buses, and about a 1km walk to downtown. The owners, JP and Katrin were very helpful and responsive our questions about restaurants, buses, and even Canadian Health Care (long story.....). It snowed considerably during our stay and they cleared the walkways and stairs as needed, multiple times a day. We will stay here again on our next Banff trip.

    Affordable, great and accommodating staff, pet friendly, and located in a prime location. They provide a dog bed and a dog bowl, which was a nice touch. I also like that they have a 2 bedroom suite which is quite roomy (unlike other hotels where you need to walk sideways just to get from one part of the room to another). Fitness centre, small pool, and coin laundry are available. Perfect for friends or families, and quick weekend stays.

    Our pet friendly accommodation was very good. The room was clean, spacious and had a perfect location on the 1st floor. When we arrived, there was a pet bed, food and water bowls, a welcoming dog cookie and a pet toy that was ours to take with us! Breakfast was very good, a wide selection of breakfast foods. My only comment about our room was the lighting was a little dull. We would have preferred brighter lighting.
