The only thing I did not like was housekeeping was every other day like really 3 people and 4 towels. I don’t use the same towel twice. The second thing was the breakfast a 1/2 egg and dry sausage links this is not Hilton expectations surely. It was more like a econo lodge quality we are totally disappointed.

This is a bare bones property, meaning it has the very basics, but no frills. For instance, there was a mini fridge but no coffee pot in the room. The bed was very comfortable and the room and bath sparkling clean. The pool is small and the free breakfast was typical of most hotels. The grounds were convenient for those of us traveling with pets which I appreciated. The location is easy access to the university and major highways, but set off far enough that noise was not a problem.

Older building that has been “refreshed”. Room smelled musty and could tell it was a smoking room at one time. Windows older and can hear a person cough outside . Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Great start

Room was clean. Service was good. Communication barrier with non-English speaking breakfast staff resulted in a wait for supplies like silverware to be restocked. Surrounding view is storage facilities and not attractive, but the hotel itself is nice and appears new. Hotel was 10 minutes drive to U of A and our activities.

Breakfast was supposed to be 6-10am. Came down at 7:00am and there was nothing there. Asked desk attendant (who seemed to be the only employee at the property) what was up ? Response - "we had a light night so I figured I wouldn't get it ready till later". Left the hotel at 7:30am and still nothing out. What a joke.

The property fit our needs. It was off the road and quiet. The only complaint we had was breakfast. The hot items(sausage and omelettes) were barely warm. I'm pretty sure the holding temperatures would not meet foodsafe standards. Both were dried out. I couldn't cut my sausage and one end of the omelette with my knife. I suspect both were put out multiple days rather than thrown out due to the low occupancy rate.

Politeness didn't make up for lasso of training by

We head traveled 8 hours to see our neice. We stopped at the hotel first. The first room on the third floor had not been cleaned yet. We went back down to the entry and asked for a different room. The person in charge was very apologetic and nice. The new room was clean. I couldn't figure out how to get local stations so i could watch the superbowl after visiting our neice. I called the desk and again the person was polite but hasn't bedeviled trained in how to make the tv work. She turned the game on down in the libby so i could watch.
