A clean hostel with friendly staff. I had a bathroom in my room, which was great. There was a large kitchen, and a plus: the ability to store luggage without checking in or having to close the curtain. 6 female bedroom

The Samesun Banff is always a great time, amazing staff and the bar is the best, reasonably priced food in town. Rooms are large and bright with their own bathroom.

I am happy that you have the 'grab & go' boxes, it comes in handy esp if you've an early start. The room is fine and I think I'm lucky to have a bed by the window so there's an extra space to put my belongings and the room mates are...
