artsPlace Tours and Activities

We were very excited to stay at this condo. There were pros and cons, which I will detail here: Pros: fantastic location - walking distance to many restaurants, the Main Street, great running / biking routes, easy access to the highway by car, and everything else was walkable in the town of Canmore. The views of the Rocky Mountains are amazing. The condo has lots of potential. All supplies were provided (stocked kitchen, towels, laundry detergent shampoo/conditioner, body wash. Cons: a little refresh would go a long way. New shower heads are needed (terrible shower spray), shower curtain is mildewy and discoloured, shower rod is rusted, sheets and towels are well worn and not great quality, smelled musty). Kitchen pots and pans are also very worn (pots are extremely scratched up Teflon that are not safe to cook in), used dishwashing sponge, not enough clothes storage (no drawers, tiny closet, few hangers). The biggest disappointment was the building was being renovated due to water damage and the fitness center was closed. This was not mentioned to us prior to check in and not amended in our nightly rate. We are an active family and value having a workout every day, and we specifically looked for a rental with fitness facilities. Hopefully management will take these comments into account and make some refreshes for the condo. It has great potential and we would have given 5/5 with more thoughtful updates to the linens/condo supplies, and heads up about the gym.
