The hotel advertised itself as the best one-dollar-per-day hotel on the line of the Canadian Pacific Railway, offering meals prepared on the arrival of trains and boats, airy and well-lit dining rooms, and large, newly furnished rooms. The premises included a first-class bar, billiard room, and barber shop, all under the management of the hotel; D. Gorman served as manager.
