Unbelievable sights of the mountains nestled in the valley!! Winter wonderland in the middle of this quiet small town. Staff were gracious and funny. The bar and pub kitchen onsight was a cool place to mingle with other travelers, all while having other food options across the street. I definitely will come here again.

The overwhelming scent "thing-a-ma-bobs" sitting along the entire hallway outside the rooms. I recommend adding fresh air over that choice of sickly sweet fake cover up smells. Not great for my allergies. No stove or oven to cook own food.

Decent kitchen. I didn't see a wine bottle opener (but I also didn't ask). Thankfully there was never really 3 people cooking dinner since there wasn't enough space. Rooms and beds were comfy. The bathrooms smelled great with the air fresheners! Sometimes the hot water ran out late at night, but it was hot in the morning. Towels were comfy. Staff was good. I booked three nights since I had a rental car and when I showed up I was a little frustrated with where I could park my car (included, for free). After speaking with the manager they confirmed that there was a 24/7 lot (for about 6 cars, shared with a couple other establishments) and it was first come first serve. But there was a parking lot 1 minute walk away where you can park for free 8pm-8am. So I parked in that other lot 2 nights (which worked fine since I was there to hike and woke up early). My last night I was able to get a spot in the 24/7 lot. So overall I was satisfied. Downtown Canmore is also nice and I wish I had more time to explore. There's a large grocery store not far away (driving), but there's a decent grocery store just across the street from the hostel which is nice.

The parking situation was a little frustrating at first. I'm fairly certain on Booking.com it says "free parking" at the top (in an icon) and I don't recall seeing the "first come first serve" piece written on the site (perhaps I missed it). After I booked and paid, however, yes those details were listed in the confirmation email (but that wasn't apparently until after I put money down). Again, speaking with the manager made a lot more sense and they were very patient with confirming the parking situation.

The property manager Abby is really kind, friendly and very accommodating. Quick to help with any issues and definitely goes above and beyond. Everytime you see him h3 is cleaning something vigorously. To be honest for the price my expectations were tempered but it is really clean here. Bathrooms are always tidy and clean,for me that's really important and thry are always pristine or next to it.

Lack of laundry facilities but only because the laundromat is a trek.

It's a very nice little hostel in the centrum of Canmore. We booked a private room for two Persons. The Room was a bit small but enough for us. The hostel is right above a bar, so it can be a bit loud. But in our stay it was never too loud so we could sleep very well. Also you get a 10% discount on the bar. Overall, was it a good place to stay and we can recommend it.

Unfortunately, there was only one coat hook. A few more hooks would be good, so that you can hang both towels and possibly jackets even in pairs.

Private room felt very secure and was nicely laid out with a comfortable bed and all the amenities. Bathroom was very close and only for the private rooms so was never busy and was always clean. Location was excellent and right in the middle of town. A few spots for parking but there is free road parking less than a 5 minute walk away.

A little noisy overnight.

Excellent location super close to the centre of Canmore. Super easy check in and out process. I had a quiet room at the far end of the building so I couldn’t hear any bar noise. Electronic key code access to rooms made me feel very safe

Under the bed obviously hadn’t been cleaned in a while and my bed was pretty squeaky so I was a bit worried about disturbing the other people in my room. Also the key code access to the rooms was loud so there’s no sneaking in and not disturbing others

The property had a great location and price compared to other places in the area. My room was clean and the bed was comfortable.

The bathroom was extremely humid. A little ventilation/fan would help a lot. I happened to go during a heatwave, so it was a very hot night’s sleep with a very small fan and no AC. The weather isn’t the property’s fault, of course.

Good economical option offered right outside of Banff National Park. Everything here is expensive, of course, so the Hostel was the way to go.

Nothing! It's a hostel, you are not going to have any space to your own but to be expected.

Staff was communicative and responsive. The space was fairly clean, location was good.

The kitchen was a bit dirty, the wall’s thin so if people are talking in the common area or there’s event in the basement it could be loud till late. The room also didn’t have heater in the first few days, it was freezing one night in -12 c. But the staff fixed it so all was good.

The location is perfect. It's right in the center of the city. The beds are comfortable and it's safe. The bathrooms are always clean even though there are a lot of people.

There is a bar downstairs that makes too much noise at night and there is no space in the kitchen.
