One of the best stays!
Overall we really like staying at this hotel. Breakfast was good. Room is very nice. Service is good. We love all of the common areas and the location fits our needs perfectly. One area of improvement (although we don’t use it very much) is the tv channel selection - it could use some help. That’s it. Thanks for a great stay!

Hotel is frustrating. For the price, Breakfast should be offered longer. Wasnt aware of time Breakfast was finished. Way too long of a spiel for the employees during check-in. Hot tub jets are softer than bath tub spouts. The fact the employees have to explain the layout should tell you something. Same room numbers on the same floor is a terrible decision. I get it two different places but there has to be a better system. Nice place dont get me wrong. Get more bang for your buck elsewhere. My apologies for venting after I didn't get Breakfast, I'm hangry

I used to live in Saskatoon and occasionally return to visit family. For those not familiar with Saskatoon, this is on the edge of the University by Griffiths Stadium. If you are going to visit the University, attend a game, research meeting, etc: this is a very convenient location. Close to the PhysEd (Kinesiology) building if you want to work out, close to the river bank if you want an enjoyable run, close to both RUH or City Hospital if visiting. The breakfast is a bit bland but the coffee is good. Excellent blackout window coverings. The rooms are comfortable. I enjoy the barndoor inside the room that mutes noise from the hallway. The one downside is there aren't many restaurants close by. The Staybridge side is sometimes the same price, sometimes more expensive: not sure the price difference is worth it, but may be preferable if within a few dollars of each other.
