The man that checked us in, Louis, was extremely rude and continued to ask us very uncomfortable questions regarding our stay in Calgary. He told us the Denny’s on site is horrible and he would never go there, and then proceeded to tell us the Tavern restaurant on site was way overpriced for terrible food. We were really looking forward to both of those restaurants during our stay. Unfortunately Louis ruined that for us. He continued to ask my partner why we were in town, and then told us Calgary sucks. It was truly an awful experience. We were very uncomfortable for our entire stay. When we tried to check out early to find a new hotel to stay at, they told us we would be charged for an additional night if we chose to do so. Stay literally anywhere else. This Sandman is not a good choice.

Room was comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. The big drawback was that the room was so poorly lit it was like cocktail lighting. Although there were multiple lamps and fixtures, they all had tiny neon bulbs that gave off very little light! I happened to drop an earring on the floor and had to use my phone light to find it. Also, my room didn’t have a microwave oven, even though there was space for one.

Very close to groceries and walkable too. Staff and manager was very nice to check us in early as we just took a 14hrs drive and they were gracious enough to check us in early as we have kids too. Our stay was superb and could not ask for more. Highy recommended for families with kids.

Our check in was terrible. We booked 2 rooms and they had them both under my brothers name and couldn’t find the reservation that I had made under my name for the both of us. And they did not correct it so for the two days and even checkout they couldn’t find us. It should have been an easy fix.

This property needs a renovation, time to upgrade the beds and the bathroom. Countertop including the marble coffee table didn’t look like they have been wiped up for sometime. Patchwork paint on the ceiling is covering up something. Sticky floor tiles need a scrub. I used to love this property and the location - no investment into the property is showing (big time).
