Overall a good stay. Check-in was smooth and efficient. The rooms were clean, though a bit worn and could use some updates. We used the elevator due to our luggage, but the door timing was off—it closed too quickly and nearly shut on us. The onsite restaurant was a highlight; the pizza was excellent. Breakfast in the morning was just okay—nothing special, but it did the job.

The elevator requires replacement due to its age and malfunctioning. My children and I were trapped inside for a couple of minutes, and it was a truly frightening experience. None of the buttons functioned, and there was no response when I activated the emergency button. I was on the verge of contacting emergency services(911) when the doors finally opened. We have avoided using the elevator since that incident. I brought this matter to the attention of the staff during checkout, and they assured me they would relay my concerns to the manager. That elevator should not be in service, as it poses a significant safety risk.

Our stay was just my daughter and I for one night. The property was well kept, sheets were amazingly comfortable. Staff was attentive to needs and all of our silly questions. On-site restaurant was yummy and their staff was also great. This was a first trip to Fernie, we will be back and most certainly will be booking our stay with the Stanford.

We stayed in one of the condos. While I thought the hotel was fine, and the front desk lady was wonderful, the condo could have been in better shape. It was very, very, hot, and it was difficult to cool the place down. The fridge also broke and leaked a bunch of water all over our food and floor that we had to clean up. They came and fixed it while we were gone, but I think they just turned the fridge up so everything froze. Several of our fridge items froze after that, and I doubt it actually got fixed. There was only one small dish towel to use with the kitchen and the oven was missing its handle. Kids absolutely loved the water slide though. That made it all worth it.

Cisco router in middle of the room roof kept flashing and disrupted our sleep. AC blew directly onto beds in our faces and we felt like we were sleeping in a windstorm. Switching off was too muggy. Ended up more than half the night till all four of us were completely exhausted before we fell asleep around 01:00. Bathroom very cramped and small. Not a great start to our 14 day trip and will avoid this hotel on the way home.
