Liked: It's got everything you need, wireless, big and clean kitchen and friendly staff
Disliked: The bed was a little bit uncomfortable because the frame was leveled with the mattress so I kicked it a few times in my sleep...

Liked: Buy 2 nights get 1 50% off made it really cheap. Breakfast included bananas and muffins.
Disliked: Some of the activities boards are out of date, when raised to staff nothing was done. This meant travelling to a venue expecting one thing and getting something else entirely.

Liked: I like it being clean and so comfy like a home away from home, since Calgary is fairly small, everywhere to go is walkable. I told them that I'm travelling with my husband, and they try to arrange us a private room with nice beautiful yard right front of our window,. WIFI is good in each room. Really neat area and friendly staff!
Disliked: Very good! Both my husband and I love it being here! Opps! It would be nice to have a bigger TV to watch Rocky games, and some cloth racks.

Liked: It had great facilities and a good vibe. It was a short walk to the bus stop for the airport. Pretty good location, close to the city centre.
Disliked: There are a lot of homeless people in the area so it put me off going out at night. Also a few people complained about not sleeping due to the trains (it's very close to train tracks).

Disliked: There is a station which is closest to the hostel, which is underconstruction though. When it will be conpleted, the location will be perfect!

Liked: Excellent location in that it is really close to downtown.
Disliked: Some of the rooms are facing the LRT track so you hear the bell on the train quite often while sleeping. Also, the 6 person room I stayed in only had one outlet for charging electronics. To be fair though, there are outlets in the common reading room area which can be used for your laptop charging etc.
