"Very comfortable stay with good breakfast options"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
We stayed for three nights during our time in Calgary. It was the great bang for the buck. The staffs were friendly and prompt. Everything was very well put together and clean. The room was very big. The breakfast was very good for the overall price. Free parking. At a very prime location, its a blessing. Loved every bit of our stay.
