A very relaxing, quiet and pleasant hostel.
I enjoyed my stay because of the peaceful wilderness surrounding this hostel. The manager was very helpful, knowledgeable, accommodating and kept a very tidy accommodation.

Fantastic Economic Place close to Banff
Wow, didn't expect to feel so at home, but so enjoyed the people at this hostel. Even though it was simple, all I needed for was there - a clean, quiet bedroom and washroom, respectful and friendly people as well as a knowledgeable and helpful staff.

This is an old hostel with dorm type accommodation and they make it as comfortable and clean as it can be for such a dated building. I visited in the winter on a weeknight and I found the bed (which you make yourself with supplied linen) to be comfortable and slept well. The common kitchen is well equipped and the living area has a wood burning stove in the centre of a panoramic windowed room surrounded by magnificent scenery. I found the host, Tony, to be friendly and competant.
