We had the most fantastic time at Shauna's. Communication fantastic, location fantastic, accommodation absolutely perfect. Just beautiful. Would recommend 100% to anyone who wants the perfect stay in Banff.
Great location, and very comfortable, with off street parking and local info. Would not want to do much cooking in the kitchen, but there are plenty of restaurants close.
Exactly as described! Close to town you can walk to shop and dine without paying parking fees everywhere. It is in a nice neighborhood and was very safe we slept with the windows open!!
What a great place to stay in Banff! Short walk to downtown and the Bow River. The communication with the host was great, always responded quickly. The space was clean and perfect for two couples. There were also nice little extras, snacks and bear spray! Would highly recommend staying here.
We stayed here for 3 nights. Great location to walk downtown as parking is hard to find. House was super clean, had everything we needed. Definitely recommend, would stay here again!
Wonderful accommodations; easy and pleasant walk to town including shops, bars restaurants. Child and owners upstairs were quiet. Always responded to questions. Parking was easy.
Such an adorable little cabin. Everything was perfect. Host was great to communicate, location is amazing and the place was perfectly clean. We enjoyed our short time there and will for sure stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay. The location is wonderful and only a couple blocks from town. The WiFi was really great and we were able to continue working when needed. The place was super clean and we loved having the small kitchen area to prepare meals--there was even a hot plate to use for cooking.
Shauna/Brian provided recommendations for restaurants which were super helpful and we would absolutely return to visit this property. Great owners and great property!
We had a wonderful week in Banff. The location of the unit was perfect for walking into town and plenty of parking. The unit was clean and bight. We were very comfortable during our stay.
Our stay at this location was a breeze from the start. We communicated with the property owner/manager and was able to gain early entry to accommodate my son's afternoon nap. The location is perfect, very close to downtown Banff, with beautiful views of the mountains. Would definitely choose to return to this location!
The host was the best I've ever had the pleasure to stay with. There was so much care and effort put into our visit. Location was so close to downtown we could walk to everything. Anyone staying at this property will be very pleased. Very comfortable furniture, great parking just a few feet from the entrance. If you go to Banff, this is the place you need to stay!
This was a wonderful apartment in an amazing location. A short walk to the downtown. Everything was nice and clean and the owners had thought of all the little things that we might need, including dropping off umbrellas the day it rained. We would definitely come back.
This home was clean and spacious. Better than that though was the location within walking distance town and easy to get everywhere we wanted to go. We had an RV with us and had plenty of room to park it (we got prior permission from the host.). Shauna was quick to respond to us even when we texted her late at night. Highly recommend this place.
A little expensive but much better value than staying in a hotel. Comfy beds, warm and clean. Great location just out of town and quite so no problem with hoards on the main strip.
Only thing it’s missing is a cooker but apparently not able to provide due to local rules. Microwave and coffee making facilities available.
Clean, cozy and convenient to all Banff has to offer. Restaurants, visitor center, walking and hiking trails, groceries are all within walking distance. The neighborhood is quiet and quaint. Our host was very accomodating and had everything we needed including off street parking. The house was very clean and uncluttered. We loved our stay in Banff.
Owner was very responsive. Unit was clean. Location amazing. Only comment would be the main living space in the unit was a little smaller then I thought it would be from the pictures. Other then that, I would definitely recommend.
A lovely apartment in an ideal position for exploring Banff. Our check in was easy, and our hosts were very friendly. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, and suited two couples very well. We parked our car and enjoyed strolling to the shops, restaurants, museums and beautiful riverside. For longer trips, it was easy to drive from the apartment out of town. We would recommend highly and would love to return.
Overall satisfaction. Very clean. Good construction. Comfortable bedding. Great water pressure. Conveniently located. Excellent communication with host.
A dishwasher and washer/dryer would be a wonderful addition.
Clean, comfortable, and convenient location. Perfect tof two, two couples, or similar. The Cedars is just as advertised.
As others have mentioned, this is a shared house and you may hear feet upstairs, or noise at times, but never too early, or too late.
I would definitely return.
