Stayed for 1 night here as everything nearby was booked up. Service at desk was lacking on arrival. Clerk had other things to worry about rather than customers.
Rooms were daily clean but dated and bathroom was looking a bit tired with loose caulking. Beds were clean but sheets / duvet were low quality materials.
Continental breakfast was a big...

This budget motel is located in the 'Motel Village' on Banff Trail in Calgary: easy accessible but what a sad little stretch of town! It's location (close to light rail, hospital & several shops) should help, but doesn't add to the fact that the hotels/motels in this area are built to close to each other. No You'll look into the...

After booking a room online (through a third party) I mistakenly booked a smoking room and Loreta at the front desk had zero customer service when she informed us we had to pay an extra $10 to switch. The room prices were identical, it was a Sunday with few guests but Loreta hid behind "policy" and has lost our business...

It's not the best, it's true, but this motel looks better than area motels' average. I had a room in main building, at first look seems to be OK. Breakfast is served in a nice area, large room with TV, fireplace, comfortable tables and chairs.

I was just after a room that was reasonably priced and that would give me a comfortable place to rest after some long driving. It served its purpose. It was clean and it was comfortable but apart from that nothing special. Typical of an Econo Lodge.

This simple, value priced accomodation was clean, basic (they really "could" do better without much cost or trouble) breakfast, friendly staff, and is an excellent location for visiting Foothills Hospital. Fitness room basic but adequate.

Cheap Clean Safe Lodging, but that's all...
Almost all of the Hotels and Motels in motel row seem quite sketchy. But If you need a clean safe place to stay to visit the Foothills Hospital, Mcmahon Stadium, or U of C, this is a great choice. Like most of the motels in motel row, it's cheap. I have stayed in...

This was my second stay in this hotel. It is an unpretentious, great value place to stay. The rooms are comfortable if ordinary. Too many hotels in Calgary are overpriced to begin with then you get dinged extra for parking, wifi, breakfast, etc. Here, it's all included. Sure, the breakfast is basic, but it is what I'd be eating at...
