This place would do well for young families, if cleaned properly, but was not comfortable enough for those older or with
Pros:

The view over the river was fantastic. We liked that there were two separate bedrooms. Air conditioning is always a plus. The folks at the front desk were pleasant to deal with.

Cons:

Housekeeping needed to up their game. The bathroom had grime all along the edges and corners and the shower hadn’t been cleaned (we found hair stuck to the stall). Ground in grime on the kitchenette floor needs serious elbow grease, and again dirty in corners. We could smell stale cigarette smoke. The bed was tiny for two people.

Simple, but spacious bedrooms for a comfortable stay.
Pros:

Convenient location. I was able to do an early check-in, which was very helpful. The room is spacious.

Cons:

I wanted to do an early check in and called and left messages a couple of times, but did not get any call backs. So I had to go to the reception and ask the receptionist in person. The air conditioning was very strong, so I used a blanket. There were lots of hair on the blanket and was not very clean.

Gross! Do not stay here! We lasted 10 minutes!
Pros:

Not one thing, it was absolutely disgusting! Filthy, smelly, and broken down

Cons:

Everything, it stunk like a bar room floor, it was filthy and we left and stayed somewhere else.

simple place, would stay there again.
Pros:

location was fine. we were staying one night to break the trip to Jasper national park. Hotel was near the Canadian highway. Plenty of food choices. parking was good. No problems at all.

Cons:

room was quite basic, but reasonable as it was on university grounds in the summer.
staff seemed to be students and they were unable to answer questions about things off campus.

Unterkunft ist ok, jedoch sehr spartanisch.
Pros:

Kleine Suite in Studentenwohnheim mit zwei separaten Zimmern und einem gemeinsamen Esstisch.

Cons:

Es gab zwar eine Küche, jedoch komplett ohne Ausstattung, sodass wir sie nicht nutzen konnten. Also nicht mal eine Tasse, ein Glas oder ein Kochtopf. Der einzige kaffeeautomat im Haus war defekt. Daher starteten wir den Tag leider ohne Kaffee. Eine Minimalausstattung mit Z.b. Wasserkocher und Tassen oder Kaffeemaschine wäre wünschenswert! Die Betten wurden als Queensize angeboten, waren jedoch ungewöhnlich schmal.

Preiswerte Unterkunft mit toller Aussicht.
Pros:

Herrliche Aussicht vom 7. Stock über die Stadt. Funktionell eingerichtete Zimmer. Hilfsbereites Personal.

Cons:

Der Teppichboden in einem Zimmer müsste dringend gereinigt werden. Leider keinerlei Küchenausstattung und der Kaffeeautomat in der Lobby war auch kaputt.
