Loved the kitchenette to cut down on eating out

Kitchen needed a breadboard and a sharp knife

Pros:

Convenient location but there are some homeless people loitering in the vicinity.

Cons:

At 2.50pm we were told to come back in 45 minutes as the room wasn't ready. The coffee in the room was disgusting. The ice machine in the corridor and occasional police vehicles with sirens kept us awake.

Pros:

La camera molto spaziosa e ben attrezzata. La posizione comoda proprio sopra la fermata dello C Train nel tratto centrale gratuito e direttamente collegata con la skywalk +15 (utilissima in caso di maltempo per spostarsi da un blocco all'altro). Avere a disposizione piscina e palestra si è dimostrato un plus avendo subito 3 giorni di pioggia incessante.

Cons:

Nonostante il soggiorno fosse già completamente confermato e pagato tramite Booking, c'è stato un piccolo contrattempo in fase di check-in, in quanto la prenotazione non corrispondeva. Ma grazie all'intervento del manager tutto è stato risolto rapidamente.

Pros:

Close to the C Train,
Comfortable clean bed,
Staff fairly helpful with our luggage

So close to Calgary’s terrible drug scene- very confronting.
Also not impressed with the barking dog in the room next door

Pros:

The room was clean and the bed was comfortable

Cons:

The hotel itself was fine, but the surrounding area felt unsafe due to the presence of many homeless individuals and people appearing to struggle with substance use.
