A cheaper option to overnight to airport
I overnighted to catch an early flight, used their Parking place for two days and overnighted on my way back. The first time I got an old room at the main floor. Bring your own water bottles as there’s no complimentary and vending machine was not working properly. On my way back I got an upgraded room on the 5th floor and it’s much better, seemed to be recently renewed. One of the two elevators was out of order. Parking my car there during my 2-day trip was a good idea, only 10 CAD per night. Distance to the airport is still about 20 minutes on the shuttle.

Check in was fine, When we went to get on the elevator only 1 was working, so we had to wait for the lineup to be dealt with. This also meant that the cleaning staff had to try to get their large carts onto the elevator while people were trying to get to their rooms. The bathroom was not as clean as it could have been, door and frames showed signs of deterioration from moisture,

We stayed here the night after a long delayed trip home from Calgary airport. Even though the hotel is a bit further away from the airport, it offered excellent affordable accommodation with a good shuttle service to and from the airport. This is our preferred hotel accommodation.
