Negative Reviews
negative:
Small showers
Past guests have complained that the showers in the bathrooms are very small and, therefore, it can be somewhat uncomfortable to shower in them. This is a particularly large problem for those who are tall, as the cubicles don't provide enough space.
negative:
Certain rooms are tiny
Every room at this property is different and some of the rooms are quite small. This left guests who ended up in one of the smaller rooms unhappy with the amount of space that they had.
negative:
A bit of a walk from downtown
There have been complaints that this property is a bit far from downtown Calgary. Although it is advertised as being a 20 minute walk from the downtown core, it is actually quite a bit longer. As a result, guests have been forced to take public transit or a taxi when they don't feel like walking or the weather doesn't cooperate.
