Courtyard By Marriott Hotels in Calgary

Location strategic as there are fewer homeless people around compared with the 7th Avenue or core shopping area, and I didn't feel unsafe during my stay. It's near Chinatown too. I however do not particularly like this hotel as there's no kettle inside the room, air conditioning is rather strong and couldn't be adjusted except the temperature. Nothing to eat nearby and the restaurant on 2/F requires booking. The hotel doesn't have a character itself. Most ridiculous is that they require a security deposit by really debiting my credit card upon my checkin (usually hotels won't present the card for similar deposit as security).

The room was good, big enough, the furniture was new, the sofa and bed were very comfortable. The front desk service of the hotel is polite and thoughtful, and the leisure area in the lobby is very spacious and warm. If you want to talk about the shortcomings, the breakfast provided by the hotel is a set meal but needs to be ordered in the accompanying restaurant menu. The content is cumbersome and the waiter feedback is very slow. It always says I will come back without any constructive suggestions. Hotel guests should be arranged a concise version of the package, which is convenient for guests in a hurry to save time. In addition, the waiter in the restaurant, especially an older man, was very impatient. The bread type not reflected on the menu was not willing to explain more, because there was no tip?

Good service, clean room. Nothing to complain about.
