Not as good as advertised!
The only good thing about the hotel was the receptionist we met the first day. She really did her best to help us out. Otherwise the beddings were not very clean, there was a lamp with a completely broken shade in the room which we asked to be taken out and it was not done until we asked again on the second day. There was a fat chunk of gum which someone had chewed and left on the chair. The internet connection which is so publicised just did not work. The exercise room was not very clean and the garbage had not been takenout forever. The treadmill was extremely old! The breakfast was a big mess. I am never going back there even for free!

Good location, good price,
Staff was friendly, but place was a little run down although room was clean. I had trouble getting hot water one evening and was asked to "let it run about 15 minutes" to get some. It only took about 5-7 minutes and then there was plenty.

My review of Days Inn - Calgary South
Most things were pretty good, except the bathroom shower which was dripping water and took a long time time before getting hot water. Air conditioning too felt like it was blowing air at the same temp of around 65 no matter what you set the temp to. Otherwise the hotel was decent.

Not the best choice you could make
Days Inn South Calgary, reception is very good, but after that very littlw pleases the eye. Hallway carpets are in serious need of professional cleaning services,and while the beds are comfortable it is a poor option to use 2 white flat sheets instead of a cover for the duvet. I was very frustrated to have to stand waiting for the water in the shower to get warm enough for me to even think about stepping in. Location while convenient for downtown, is right by the C train tracks and on a divided section of road making access somewhat inconvenient.

Served its Purpose
For a place to stay, this hotel provided the basic needs. Its an aging property, however the room itself was clean. The hallways left alot to be desired, but we don't sleep in the hallways, do we? There is a Tim Hortons and MacDonald's next door which proved to be invaluable, since the hotel had no restaurant available. The wireless internet wasn't working during my stay and the front deskperson gave me the impression that it rarely works. The breakfast was basically toast and cereal. Only other issue was that this hotel doesn't take any Mastercard/Visa cards that are issued as cheque cards. In the end, for a place to sleep and use as a 'home base', the property did serve its purpose, without any frills. I had a room on the rear side of the hotel and while the view is of 'nothing', I'd recommend it. The front of the hotel overlooks a busy street, and I found my room was extremely quiet throughout the nite.
