“great for families”

this hotel has very good location close to the 17ave restaurants and shops, an awesome coffee/wine bar across the street. free parking, internet and continental breakfast as well as a cute kitchenette were reasons we chose it and we'll definitely be back!

“Great value!”

Hotel clean, quiet and comfortable, and a 15-20 minute walk from downtown Calgary. Nice amenities including large room, kitchenette including microwave, frig, dishes, etc, nice toiletries, and VERY comfortable bedding. Complimentary breakfast was a plus, as was secure free underground parking. Definitely recommend this hotel for great value at a great price.

“Surprisingly good!”

To be quite honest I was a bit worried about the quality of the hotel from the pictures on the website, however we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the rooms, the comfort and the spaciousness. I would definitely recommend it to anyone, as it's great value for your money - continental breakfast, globe & mail, and high speed interent in all rooms, plus a business room if needed. Quite nice overall.

“Good Renovation/Improvements Job !! Dairyland Yogurt on the breakfast table..please”

Nice hotel. Well appointed rooms with adequate amenities.

“Would definitely use this hotel again”

Superb location for the Calgary tourist. Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Great area with lots of eating places and lively atmosphere without being noisy - good location for single people, couples or families

“Clean, updated and a great location”

Good location, the room was huge with great ammenities. The breakfast bar had numerous options and the staff were very professional and helpful. I will make this my hotel of choice for my stays in Calgary from now on.

“great stop”

we got 2 rooms for the weekend we thought that eveverything was great the staff the food, not so much the coffee in the breakfast room.

“Friendly”

Very clean and well maintained, the staff was super. Very nice amenities. Good location as well.

“Calgary's Best-Kept Secret”

An older property but in good shape; excellent location - central though not in the heart of downtown. Walkable in good weather though. A real find, and excellent value (check out the mid-week prices of the mainstream hotels in the centre of the city). Big bonus: free parking. Calgary has the highest parking rates of any city in Canada. Other bonus: free wireless and an adequate breakfast. I had meetings all day off site on checkout day, and they let me park all day for nothing - saved $50 right there. Rooms are spacious and well appointed; microwave and fridge, good big desk and proper office chair. Large closet. Bed was one of the more comfortable hotel beds I have had this year. "Safe" area and just two blocks from 17th Ave SW - plenty of good restaurants and nightlife. Only snag is that there are only two elevators and they are (Oct 2010) under renovation so there's usually only one operating - could take forever to get up/down, but they're working as quickly as they can. I have no complaints about this hotel: I travel to Calgary often and have forsaken the "downtown" and even airport hotels because of the outrageous cost (I work in the not for profit sector). Most of the other so-called budget hotels are flea pits and reflect years of neglect, overseen by new Calgarians with an incomplete understanding of what constitutes acceptable standards. This hotel is a gem!

“Would definitely stay there again”

Centrally located, clean rooms, friendly staff, free newspaper, free Internet, free breakfast and free parking make this the place to stay in Calgary. It's not fancy just a basic room with a kitchenet but really what more do you need. Tons of great restaurants within walking distance if you don't want to use the room's facilities. I highly recommend it and would stay there again.
