Thank you, Dennis, for your review!

5 out of 5
The breakfast was excellent! Meat, eggs and hash browns each day. With fruit and fruit salad. Waffles, fresh pastries, porridge, cold cereal, yogurt, bread...really anything that one would want for breakfast. The newly renovated breakfast room and lobby are very nice! The free upgrade to a one bedroom suite was a fabulous surprise and the room was big and clean! The location is great! Walking distance to the restaurants and shopping on 17th Ave, as well as to thE Core Shopping Centre, Glenbow Museum, Saddledome and the Tower. We felt very safe even walking at night.
