We found that the check in process was stressful. This is due to the unique nature of your vehicle drop off system. Your staff, however, were fantastic to us and had a very high level of professionalism. We appreciated that.

This is by far the worst location to stay in when visiting Calgary. Within 10 minutes of being there I ran across the street to the store and was told by a police officer not to walk around at night there. Dangerous place to be!

Convenient downtown Calgary location.

The Shower control wastes thousands of gallons of water each year (not eco friendly) and costs the franchise quite a bit with unnecessary costs. One can hardly see which side to turn to hot and you end up turning up to cold wasting a lot of water by trial and error. Your front desk staff were very friendly.

I always like that this hotel is clean and comfortable. It is in a super location with ready access to the light rail Transit and plenty of restaurants. The front desk staff are always amazing and super friendly. I was disappointed that the bathroom wasn't cleaner, you could see dirt on the counters in a few spots from the previous guest which I had to wipe away and the paint was peeling away from the ceiling in the shower. I expect more of a Sandman Hotel at this price point.
