A couple nights at the Drake

Incredible price for Canmore. We needed pet friendly. They were great. Gave us a creekside room. Complimentary drinks and mad specials at the attached pub. Room was hot first night. The thermostat failed. They had it fixed immediately. Great views, comfy beds, clean, super central to downtown. Hotel is older but was fine.
