The room was just what we needed for overnight stop driving back from Banff to Vancouver via Jasper. The added bonus of the restaurant was great and the food was really nice. The bed was very comfortable and the only negative was the TV, which had a really poor reception and picture quality, which was surprising because the WiFi was good.
