It was oddly weird. The decor was somewhere between art deco and 70's disco. Floor plan was all cut up like a maze trying to find your room. Rooms weren't ready at check in time. Will not be staying here again when there are so many other choices.

A good hotel thats fair priced. Love having underground parking for the motorcycles. Good location, espeically when you want quick access to get to the mountains. I was disappointed this time as the pool was reserved for a party. We had arrived to check in at around 730pm and were told we could not use the pool. there is no way we could have known the pool was booked in advance as that was our notice as soon as we checked in. Surprise notice! Other than that, it was a good place to sleep without breaking the bank.

The property is very clean and well maintained. My room was clean and had a very modern astetic. Bed itself was very comfortable and smelled fresh. Bathroom area was also really clean and the toiletries supplied were of above average quality. Issues I had with the room were mainly tied to the layout, a table/shelf was block half the air conditioner which made the room cool down a lot slower, and my toilet was a bit too close to the wall making it a bit uncomfortable to use. Breakfast was included with my stay and the variety is what you would expect from most establishments and the taste was average to above average. On site facilities like the gym and swimming pool looked to be well maintained and clean, however I did not use them during my stay.

The staff was amazing. Exes restaurant has a variety of excellent meals for very affordable prices. Room service took less than 8 minutes each evening and the hotel was sold out. Impressive. The rooms are modern and beds comfy. Blinds could use updating. The gym is adequate, treadmills need calibration but they were fine and I didn’t want to run outside alone early mornings. The spa on sight was also excellent. I had a fantastic Thai massage there. A 7 minute walk to the foothills athletic track which was why I was there. Perfect.

Ok if stricter "teams" or kids group bookings

A case of bad luck or do all hotels need to be stricter with kids? They booked a boys baseball team or two, the unholy ruckus. 10 boys to one adult (ignoring the mayhem) in the small pool = no swimming. The breakfast buffet was a no go. The ceiling shook from the elephant stampede, forget sleep. They warn you that there is never enough parking, it's even worse if you arrive 'late afternoon' so be prepared. It is very close to transit, leave it parked, or you'll lose that spot. To be fair I thought the rooms were average, no issues there. I caught COVID while in Calgary and staying here, I recommend taking precautions.
