“What strikes me is the architecture itself, intimately connected to Calgary's Plus 15 walkway. Rooms come in all shapes, some offering balconies, others direct pool access, plus practical extras, like the convenience store and UPS access, elevate it beyond the ordinary. In my view, this is a solid option for those needing both function and a dash of local flavour.”

Valet parking made arrivals stress-free, and the 24-hour access was incredibly convenient. A bit extra, but worth it downtown.
