Our room overlooked HVAC unit - literally that is ALL we could see from our room - consider it overpriced because of that. The hotel itself feels safe but the park down the block is full of unhoused people, many of them clearly out of it on drugs - witnessed this both on arrival and departure. Not sure how safe I would feel walking around after dark. Hotel has a nice restaurant but very expensive. Would not stay here again.

No Sleep at this hotel
Left the hotel after my first night. Extremely loud HVAC unit. It felt like I was sleeping next to a gas lawnmower. Told the front desk at 8:30 am and at 11:00pm that night I decided to book another hotel so I could get a good night sleep while staying for Business in Calgary. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL AT ALL!!!!!

Charging full price on days when the pool is closing is ridiculous. And closing the pool at 2pm on a gorgeous Sunday doesn’t make sense. Change it to Monday change over. Sunday is still part of the weekend. I’ll be going to carriage house next time.

Do Not Stay Here - 2024
I've stayed here previously in 2016 so I was excited to go back. Sadly, I was beyond appalled by the lack of customer service which from check in to check out, it was a hopeless experience. Check in was stressful and the employee was rude. Further, when I pointed out the room I had paid for was not provided (given queen when I reserved a king) the staff member mumbled something about a "glitch" and made no attempt to fix the hotels error. Even when requesting a hard copy of my bill after my stay had ended and trying to work with staff member. He was rude, condescending and when found to be in the wrong only made poor excuses instead of apologizing. Plus on top of it all, the rooms fan sounded like a jet engine so it was near impossible to sleep. Safe to say I nor my organization will ever be back.
