Okay let's start off by your arriving after hours the doors locked and asked to use the entrance around the back there's no directions no path no light to show you where to go and realize you walk around the entire building and have the one door 5 ft next to the other door with no stairs

Second

Beds are old and uncomfortable and crappy and squishy so you end up rolling to the center and sticking next to your partner all night


Lamp beside the bedside table had a broken plug in that wouldn't work actually unsafe and sparked electricity

No plugins in the room

Barely anywhere to plug in .devices like sleep apnea machines or cell phones or lap tops.
This place is junked

The hallways are painted black and dirty and are gross the baseboards weren't clean in the room

Stains on the bed

Overall. Dump .. big Nast dump

We regret not reading the reviews before booking this hotel.
We checked in and ended up checking out within an hour because the room was unacceptable. The air conditioner was extremely loud and barely cooled the room. When I called the front desk to request a different room, I was simply told to use the fan because that was the only option they could offer.
The biggest safety concern was the balcony. The balcony door didn't lock or latch, and the dividers between neighboring balconies had a gap of about a foot from the floor. Anyone from the adjacent room could easily slide through that opening. When we raised this concern, we were told it was \"safe\" and that they had never received any complaints.
After we decided to check out, we showed the front desk photos of the balcony. Even the employee looked surprised, went to inspect the room herself, and confirmed the issue. Only then did they offer us another room but it had no balcony and the air conditioner had the exact same problem.
To make matters worse, they downgraded our room to smaller one without balcony and they charged us a $30 + tax cleaning fee for the previous room even though we barely touched it.
Between the poor room conditions, the dismissive customer service, and the unnecessary extra charge, this was one of the worst hotel experiences we've had. We stayed because we they are obnoxiously and audaciously refusing a refund, we are tired and no more energy to find hotel but Definitely not recommended AT ALL!!!

I did not enjoy my stay ! The fridge had one leg off and not working properly . We booked far in advance and they stuck us in a dark , old , small room . They charged for the room on my card along with the deposit as well and made me pay again before they would release my first card ! My friend had to pay it on hers in order to get mine back ! They were also argumentative about the whole situation and my husband was having cancer surgery the next day ! Not nice ! Not enjoyable ! They also had mouse traps around the room and I was totally uncomfortable staying there ! Not the kind of hotel I thought Expedia would represent! I would never recommend it or stay there again !

If you are looking to save some money, absolutely do not.This is where you come to get stabbed. Our air conditioning was definitely dead. Our bathroom taps were horrendous.There was only open half a tube of toilet paper.The floor was disgusting burn marks in everything.It's one of those hotels where you absolutely check the seams of the bed for bugs. Not a safe area, not a good hotel stay away if in any way possible.

The checking was terrible. We reached around 2 PM when we were told that the rooms were not ready. We requested the lady checking us in to give is the 2 rooms on the ground floor when they get ready as we were going out for food. We came back at 4:30PM and we were given rooms on the 2nd floor. What was the point of reaching early. We were told the rooms were give to some other family that had come before 4:30 PM. Then the new girl who checked us in told us that she was giving us rooms close to the stairs. Our rooms were bang in the middle of the stairways nowhere close to the exits. The Aircon in our room seemed to have some tripping even at 18 ‘ C it would trip and not come back for 2 hours. Most power outlets did not work and it seems they had outlived their life. The pins would not stay in and would just pop out once you let go of the plug. There is no grocery close to the property.
When asked on the ice machine we were told that it broke just today. We check with a neighbour who had been there for 3 days who said it is permanently broken since they came. The mattress were lumpy and soft. Need to be replace since the past many years. All in all a bad experience. Never coming back.

After staying there a second time they decided to fraud me $88.80 hoping I wouldn't notice on my credit card. They retured the $100.00 hold on my credit card. Right after they charged me $88.80 so I called them to inform them of their mistake. I was told to contact the manager but they refused to give me a phone number saying the manager was not on site but gave me an email that was completely bogus. Do not trust the low price it is a scam to charge later and hope the customer does not notice. The first time I stayed there the window did not lock and I had to speak with their maintenance guy who gave me screws to secure the window. Place to avoid, price is low and there is a reason for that.

An economical, \"no frills\" stay in Calgary. I had a single Queen bed room & it was pretty small but it had a balcony. Bed & bathroom seemed clean enough. Reasonable rate. no elevators. There was a small refrigerator & TV (use your own subscriptions for watching) The mall is only a couple of blocks away & the neighborhood seems safe enough. The entrance/exit can be a little tricky. There was an air conditioner but it was pretty noisy & thankfully, I didn't really need it. I'm not a \"high maintenance\" traveler so it met my needs sufficiently. I would not honeymoon here though.

You can see my earlier review. I booked 3 nights and needed a 4th, so I made a second booking. Hence 2 reviews.

The place is run down. The bed bug reports of 6 - 8 months ago are being dealt by an exterminator said to be on site every month. But the place could use a handyman to touch up paint in the rooms. And redo the caulking in the bathroom and elsewhere. Such a simple task. Yet such a glaring tell that whomever has done renovation on the premises just didn't know what they were doing.

As I retold earlier, the biggest beef was that I was made to check out of room 105 at 11 AM only so I could check into the same room later that day at 3 PM.

This is evidence that the staff (and management) don't have a clue about the Hospitality Industry.

Price is right. A little more knowledge and planning and the property could be a unique opportunity in the Calgary market (and others across Canada I'm sure).

This feels like the Motel 6 concept. But they need to do a lot more work!!

Don't stay here if you are not willing to 'camp out' in a well located, really poorly run motel.

I brought my own bedding (quilt & pillows). The mattresses in #105 were remarkably good. The level of care and attention to the finishes was not (caulking in the bathroom, paint touch ups everywhere, etc.). There was one or two tiny blood stains on the linens in each of the two hairs on one bed. We checked the room first with the front desk clerk present (recommended practice).

But for the price and location, the unit was clean. And the bed bug reports from 6 to 8 months ago appear to have been taken care of. Front desk reported that a pest control company was on site monthly. The tiny stains... some guests check in and use drugs. The hairs? No comment. I guess hair nets on cleaning staff is a bridge too far?

The most disappointing part was that I needed to come in a day earlier and so made a second booking. Even though I did not require room service, front desk required I clear #105 by 11 AM and then check in again at 3 PM and move my belongings back in.

If you know anything about the hospitality business, you know this means they don't!

Very disappointing experience. We were unexpectedly charged over $63 for allegedly stained towels without any prior notice. The towels were already old, and we did not stain them with anything. If there were marks, they may have come from the dirty floor after check-in but it wasn’t stained.
The washroom and aircondition was in poor condition, and overall cleanliness was disappointing. We made sure to take a video of the room before leaving to document its condition. To make matters worse, there was no manager available to discuss or resolve our concerns.

Upon checking in, I was told the room I booked was having a “maintenance” issue where a door had fallen off so I was given another room. The other room was beyond gross, and smelled of dust and depression, not properly swept, random cigarette burn marks and copious amount of dust/debris down in the baseboard heaters. I went back to the front desk and told them I would not be checking in and would like a refund. They of course hid behind their policies and refused.

The best way I can describe this entire property is “lipstick on a pig”, where the lipstick is from the dollar store, and the pig is about to die. DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL!! Spend a little more and get a room from practically anywhere else.

When I booked this hotel the photos ended up not looking anything like what I booked. Where I ended up looked like we were in sex worker central. Maybe you should update your photos so people know that instead of a charming hotel, it’s a place you take your sex worker for the night.

I paid my dues and they charged me an extra $31.50.. for what you ask I have no clue. This place sucked and was creepy as heck. I will not return to this place at all.

Very poor experience. The room smelled strongly of smoke despite being booked as non-smoking, and it was not clean, including the bathroom. I raised the issue immediately, but staff did not offer another room and refused a refund. I had to check out right away. Would not recommend.

Worst hotel I have ever had in my entire life. The front desk had cancelled my reservation because my card on file was expired, Expedia sent me an email stating I had 12 hours to update and I was going to be at check in within that 12 hour norice so I left it until I arrived .
The front desk would not honor my Expedia pricing and charged me nearly double to stay here. The rooms have zero sound proofing at all I could hear the people on both sides of my room for theee nights straight I got hardly any sleep due to how loud it was . I checked out early and left a night early , no refund of course on the 4 th night but to me it was better than trying to stay there any longer. 10/10
Do not recommend staying here .

I never write reviews, but I am today, because you must avoid this hotel. Our safety was threatened. This extremely run down establishment is in a shady part of town. There were gang members starring us down when we got there. We saw a woman trying to break into a car with a Slim Jim, in plain daylight, in the parking lot. The hotel attendants are protected by a cage. The lobby smelled like strong disinfectant to hide urine smell. Every customer scared us. There were (what appeared to be stolen) bicycles broken down, missing parts, abandoned by the garbage bin. The suite we rented had the bedroom window siliconed shut and both windows had 2 X 6 planks to prevent breaking and entering. The door had been kicked in multiple times, and poorly repaired. The door jamb was destroyed, and camouflaged by a flimsy piece of MDF molder. A toddler could have forced her way into this suite. The suite smelled strongly of mold, everything was completely run down. There were no butter knives in the cutlery drawer... we figured because they likely present with stabbing risk... We took the vehicle to go back to the caged lady at the front desk because we felt unsafe crossing the parking lot on foot at 4:00 PM. She did little to help us. I trust she felt unsafe leaving her cage. We quickly left after being refused a refund. We found refuge in a better hotel. Expedia should not be doing business with this establishment. It is a dark, moldy, smelly stain on your corporate reputation. Please refund

There was only one staff who was nice. I don’t know how this place stays open. They make you sign this docs where they say they will charge you fees for everything. Ask for a damage deposit and your id information. The property is in really bad condition. It’s old and broken and dirty. Sheets and pillows smell musty. God knows if they wash them. Furniture and walls and facilities are not just old they’re broken. Be aware that sliding doors to the balcony don’t lock. I asked to be moved to one where the door lock worked and they just said none has a lock. They do they just don’t work. So hope nobody jumps from another room and steals your stuff. If the room is missing something you will also be charged but they can’t even make sure they’re safe. I knew it wasn’t a 5 star hotel but this is a joke.

Charged more than advertised for room, no breakfast as advertised, no room cleaning daily…was told I was on a 3day schedule…my room was cleaned once in 12 days. Mean and angry mgt. I’m not sure what kind of people have stayed here, but they don’t like their customers and expect the worst. Dirty, lists of rules, locked me out of my room at 2am cuz they wanted 100 to renew deposit??? No notice of that, just locked me out, all
My stuff inside. Had to go ask for toilet paper since my room wasn’t being done, was treated like a criminal for it and told I was given enough. It’s not a good place anymore. Used to be cheap but clean and friendly.

The first room had hair n the bed, pubic hair and urine on the toilet set. The second room was visually clean but had a very strong smell of disinfectant. Night one was uneventful. Night two, we had no power for two hours, and no heat for the entire night. It was -30c. Also, the parking lot was not accessible because the sloped drives were icy, without any sand or gravel. Front desk refused a refund, refused a room change, and laughed when my wife asked for heat. This might be a great place for a junkie needing to find shelter but everyone else should stay far away.

Terrible experience. We didn’t even end up staying here. We called to confirm the purpose of the stay before booking. And then confirmed again at check in only for them to call us at 8 pm the night of to deny us the morning. Very dissatisfied with the overall experience. We will be expecting a refund. Do not stay here.

The rooms are small and dark, with a very noisy AC. The corridors to the rooms are very scary as they are also dark. They lied about breakfast, which was never provided. Customer care is a disaster; the lady at the reception is always arguing with clients. And to climax all this I was robbed by this place of my 100CAD that they claimed to have taken as a deposit that it would be refunded on leaving, which never happened.

Don't stay here

Plenty of free parking and moderately clean facilities, but the experience was marred by unprofessional service. The staff was argumentative and insisted I pay twice to receive a refund. We booked a queen room but were given a double instead, and there was very little hot water during our stay. Disappointing overall.

I had a very bad experience with this hotel,
1. Expedia had already charged me but I had to pay again at the front desk. Where they told me that Expedia would refund my money in 5 days.
2. The AC was so noisy that I couldn't sleep. I went to the front desk to change rooms and the receptionist only told me that's how they all are because they are old equipment. So I had to sleep in my car.
3. The shower was dirty and had hair.
4. The TV was almost the size of a tablet and had no internet connection.
5. In the morning I went to breakfast and the front desk just said they no longer included breakfast and I didn't know why Expedia included breakfast. Totally disappointed with this hotel.
6. I reserved the room for two nights but had to check out after the first night and they didn't refund me any money. This was my first experience with Expedia at this hotel. Then I saw the reviews of this hotel on other pages and was surprised. I can only wait for them to refund my money for the room and the security deposit.

You Get What You Pay For!

Location: The neighborhood feels unsafe at night. Guests are warned not to leave valuables in cars, and the motel itself has locked check-in and warning signs. Safer options may suit cautious travelers better, though the area has daytime attractions.

Room #1: Bed was fine, but the room was hot, the AC extremely noisy, and the bathroom fan loud. Security felt poor: no chain lock, dark shared entry, unclear peephole. The TV was awkwardly angled, noise carried easily from next door, curtains didn’t block light, and privacy was minimal. The worst issue though was seeing a mouse and finding droppings under the fridge. Staff agreed we couldn’t stay in that room but delayed assigning another, I had to make multiple calls in to find out if I have a new room or not, and on the last phone call they even suggested I pay $300 for a new room for one night and wouldn’t refund my booked night for the original room. After pressing, they finally honored the original rate.

Room #2: Larger and more comfortable, with better layout and coverings. The shower was great, though the AC remained noisy, the room hot on arrival, and safety features still lacking.

Overall: Some improvements in the second room, but between security concerns, noise, pests, and poor customer service, this stay was far from smooth.

The pictures didn't accurately convey the room and it's size. It's very small and as far as having a kitchenette - there were a couple of burners and very limited cookware, silverware, dishes. We stayed for six nights. We got our room cleaned twice. We had to ask for a roll of toilet paper three times before receiving one. We had to beg to get some coffee for the morning. They even asked what our room number was and my husband said \"you're not going to charge us are you?!\" and they didn't. The bed sagged in the middle and we had to make sure not to sit on the end otherwise it would flip over (the frame was not big enough). There is a cage around the check-in area so I'm not sure how safe the area is. And it's right off a very busy street (Macleod Trail). While Chinook Mall is about 2 minutes away and getting to connecting roads is easy, it's very noisy.
