Lovely rooms, great staff and service. Being beside the Trans Canada on one hand made it handy to find, but of course, that meant a lot of traffic noise. We were impressed by the spotless clean rooms. Good value.

Perfect motel for a night stay in Calgary visiting family. Comfortable bed. Spacious. Clean. Good location. Surprisingly quiet based on it being right on 16 Ave and was full of guests. Just what we needed. I completely agree with the other reviews. Great value too.
