Our stay was a good experience. Great value for money! Room was clean and bed was good. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. And the room we had was a kitchenette which was a nice bonus Continental breakfast was good except they did not have a microwave oven to warm up food if you needed it. Overall I would recommend staying here. If we are in Calgary again we would stay here again for sure. Thanks Chris.

Clean overall. However, when pulled the bed out, was dirty behind the bed. Had a kitchenette. Need to bring own extras for utensils. 2 of each for silverware and no flipper, etc. Breakfast is minimal. Pool and hot tub were clean, warm and hot, respectively. C-Train is easily accessed, shopping close by. Beds are older, firm. Stayed for three nights, booked through Hotels.com and rate was good for what was offered overall.

Verified review

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel for price paid. Good room for family. Clean, quiet and we enjoyed our time there. Only thing that let it down was the lack of availability of seating for breakfast. It's far too small for the size of the hotel. If it's busy and people take a while with breakfast you could end up waiting a while. We ended up just leaving the hotel and finding somewhere for breakfast instead both mornings we stayed here. Kids enjoyed the pool and overall our stay was good and we would come back to stay here again.
