Wow... what a pleasant stay. When I first went to Calgary there was a hotel shortage so I stayed in a Bed and Breakfast for 3 days, then I went to the first suite hotel we could find near downtown (5 Calgary). After being horribly disappointed there (see review), I found this place.

What's great about it?

- My suite had a kitchen that looked like it had never been used -- and YES, it is a full kitchen with stove, oven, microwave oven, fridge with freezer and dishwasher. A fairly good selection of cutlery, dishes and pots and pans as well (good for a hotel).

- The bed, chesterfields, and chairs were comfortable; the TVs well placed and had many channels.

- The bathroom was perfectly clean and well appointed. The soaps and shampoo are actually useable and, in fact, good! Wow!

- Housekeeping was superb.

- Great pool, hot tub and superb Waterslide! Great for families (though I enjoyed it as a sole traveller as well).

Couple of "gotchas":

- Attached restaurant is not that great. Instead, drive over to the West side of Airdrie and go to the restaurant "Our Flames".

- Fireplace is fake (electric). Nice to look at if you don't focus on it too much, and it has a built-in heater/fan to provide a bit of "fireplace comfort".

Overall:

Stay in this hotel even if you want a suite and need to be close to downtown Calgary, NE Calgary or the airport. Oh yeah, it was really inexpensive as well!
