Not good.
Pros:

AC unit next to head of bed blowing air no matter how the vents were aimed. So loud when it came on it wakes us up. Next room toilet flushing so loud it woke us up. If you can’t sleep in a hotel what is the point?

リゾートらしいホテル
Pros:

街の中心に近く、ロケーションがとても良かった。夜は静かだった。部屋が明るく清潔感があった。

Cons:

身長154cmの私には、ソファの背もたれが深すぎて、くつろいで座れなかった。ベッドの高さも、私には少し高すぎた。少し低身長の人にも配慮した家具だったら良かった。また、デスク用の椅子がなかったので、デスクの前に座って作業をすることができなかった。

okay
Pros:

I liked the fact that it was in city centre, proximity to most tourist places. the towels were clean and crisp and the toiletries were also natural and good.

Cons:

the Aircondition was outdated and, noisy. the carpet was old and potential risk to infection like legionnaires and allergies. also, no facility to keep suitcase

Pros:

Our stay was easy and simple. Check in was quick and easy, the staff was kind, and the room was satisfactory with a good location and close to everything we needed.

Cons:

My only complaint is that I wish the hot tub was open later, but otherwise it was great.

Banff on the Doorstep
Pros:

Being on Banff Avenue location was superb.

Red Carpet itself is a little odd in that it is purely rooms. You check in/out next door in sister hotel. No restaurant or bar but not far from the hustle and bustle of central Banff. Views to die for as soon as you step out of hotel.

Cons:

Nothing really. You're in Banff after all!

Ok, but strange.
Pros:

The room was clean. Beds were comfortable.

Cons:

The arrangement of the rooms is very strange. We booked a 2-bedroom. You enter through one bedroom. That's where the coffee counter is, but no sink. You also enter the bathroom through this bedroom. The second bedroom is accessed through the first bedroom. That means that if the people in the second bedroom want to use the bathroom, they have to go into the first bedroom. And, if you want to make coffee, you have to go into the bathroom.
There were only 4 pods for the coffee maker, and 2 of them were regular coffee. The others were decaf and tea. Yes, I could have asked for more, but the front desk is in motel next door.
We booked for two couples, and they made us pay an additional $50 for extra people.

Pros:

Ground floor room was quiet

Cons:

The floor is very noisy when walking on it and the bed not so great. For the price I would have expected more. Only 1 chair to sit on.

Cons:

It's a very old hotel and the prices are super elevated for what you are getting. The location is good, but the reception is in a different hotel (next to red carpet inn).
