Took me a while to choose among the myriad of accommodation in Calgary, but needing to access SAIT, UofA and Foothills Hospital during my 10 days stay, the Travelodge University was indeed a strategic hub and I could not have chosen any better. C-train and bus stops were a mere stone's throw away and the abundance of restaurants within walking distance was indeed a convenience, specially during breakfast when they have not altered the choices one bit during my entire stay. Grocery spots are nearby as well.
Staff went beyond their normal duties when they offered to make sure to fax a document I was having difficulty sending - little things do matter. Thank you. Much appreciate it.
Room was more than adequate, well lit, and with a study table crucial during my stay. And for a pet friendly room, it was a pleasant surprise it didn't smell like it. However, make sure to seal the lower edge of your door with cloth or towel during cleaning hours as the overpowering smell from the smoking room section permeates the corridor and find its way to your room, more so if you leave your windows open for fresh air. If you need to study during your stay, or just want peace and quiet try to choose a room away from the main corridors or driveway as it can oftentimes get busy. It really does pay to do your homework first, research the place through the experience of others before you, then decide on the facts at hand.
