The staff was amazing. Exes restaurant has a variety of excellent meals for very affordable prices. Room service took less than 8 minutes each evening and the hotel was sold out. Impressive. The rooms are modern and beds comfy. Blinds could use updating. The gym is adequate, treadmills need calibration but they were fine and I didn’t want to run outside alone early mornings. The spa on sight was also excellent. I had a fantastic Thai massage there. A 7 minute walk to the foothills athletic track which was why I was there. Perfect.

Ok if stricter "teams" or kids group bookings

A case of bad luck or do all hotels need to be stricter with kids? They booked a boys baseball team or two, the unholy ruckus. 10 boys to one adult (ignoring the mayhem) in the small pool = no swimming. The breakfast buffet was a no go. The ceiling shook from the elephant stampede, forget sleep. They warn you that there is never enough parking, it's even worse if you arrive 'late afternoon' so be prepared. It is very close to transit, leave it parked, or you'll lose that spot. To be fair I thought the rooms were average, no issues there. I caught COVID while in Calgary and staying here, I recommend taking precautions.

WARNING TO PEOPLE TRAVELING WITH PETS - this hotel will tuck you into the 'pet area', which is a line up of rooms in a dark, dingy corner of the hotel, that smells like chemicals, and is right above the unbelievably loud generator for the building next door. You will pay full price for an awful room, without any warning! For that much, you can get a much nicer place in a different hotel
