Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, though clean and spacious, was located in an inconvenient spot near the cleaning supplies. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to ensure my comfort. The location was convenient for accessing nearby amenities but slightly sketchy. The dining experience left much to be desired with limited options. Despite these drawbacks, the overall experience was satisfactory.
I found the hotel to be a pleasant stay with clean and quiet rooms, although some areas were dirty. The service was friendly and professional, but there was an issue with one of the tables in the dining room. The location was convenient for various activities, although shoveling in the area was neglected. The dining options were good but not inspiring. Overall, a comfortable experience with friendly service.
The hotel was very nice and clean, offering comfortable rooms, but with some noise from squeaky fridges and clunky fans into the night. The service was friendly and helpful, especially accommodating special requests for accessible rooms. The location was convenient, close to the U of Calgary and McMahon stadium. The dining experience was satisfactory, with good options considering the circumstances. Overall, a pleasant stay with minor noise disturbances and slightly confusing dining setup.
