The hotel was in a convenient location for us and very close to all the dining options in 17 Ave. Historic Lougheed House is also very close by. The complimentary breakfast was good but a little repetitive if you are staying more than a week, with the main components only rotated every second day. The room was very comfortable and spacious, and cleaned well. Would stay again.
