Highly recommended to stay for the facilities and proximity to Banff Trail Station at an affordable price. Will rebook again if and when we return to Calgary.

Great price, near the zoo, they served simple breakfast, even have mini crib for our baby, and they have swimming pool. Great value for money!

Nice place but the service wasn’t that great. Came early and was hoping for an early check in but the guy that was there wasn’t that friendly at all and was a bit rude sometimes.

The room was clean and spacious. The staffs were very friendly. Price was very affordable. Breakfast is included, they offered muffins and cereal (bulk), coffee and tea, bread and peeled boiled eggs. If you have allergies, bring your own food. Depending on the room you chose, some has stove, cutlery, dishes and soap at your disposal. Side note: we also booked for the other Econolodge situated behind this one. The Econolodge motel is to be avoided.

Had a great time at this hotel, the location is awesome with the Ctrain nearby, so parking passes are no issue. The staff were friendly, breakfast was decent. Only deduction was the hot tub out of order, not a big deal though.

I booked the lodge because it was really good value. The beds were comfortable and the bedding and towels were clean. The kitchen area was also clean. The bath was a little bit grubby and the public carpets were a little bit wore out looking. I did not like the breakfast provided, but my husband didstuff very helpful. The laundry room was good. The pool looked lovely but I didn’t use it.
