My husband and I stayed at the Kananaskis hostel in July, so I expected crowds and some considerable noise.

It was not at all like that! The hostel was blissfully quiet and peaceful, and it was sparkling clean. Our private room was small but clean throughout. The kitchen, bathroom, and our room were all spotless.

The host, Shauna, takes obvious pride in the appearance and condition of the hostel, and her hard work to keep it clean and nice and comfortable pay off in a big way.

She noticed some ants in the living room area, and mentioned that she was sorry for that, saying that she would call the exterminator the next day.

If you like peace and quiet in a very clean setting, I highly recommend this hostel. Get ready to relax and unwind.

I would certainly stay here again, and we probably will do so at the end of our trip. more
