  • This is a great condo, lots of floorspace, and Blaise is terrific. We often stay in VRBO condo's when we travel, and I don't remember one that is as well equipped. My wife can be _very_ fussy, and this condo met even her high standard of criteria for cleanliness, which is quite a task. My hot-button is the Internet connection...the laptop already connected to a private high speed connection, with printer attached was perfect...wireless also, if you want to use your own computer. Parking in Calgary can be very expensive...like $10-20 for a few hours, so we used the C-Train for a free ride downtown quite often...1/2 block to the station, train every 10 minutes, 5 minutes downtown...great feature. If this condo is available during your stay in Calgary, take it...you won't be disappointed.

  • This was our first visit to Canada, and we truly had a wonderful time! Even though we were running late getting into Calgary, Blaise was very gracious and waited for us...showing us the condo and giving us highlights of the neighborhood. We visited Banff while we were in town, and enjoyed all of the things that downtown offered. We will definitely consider visiting again, and staying in this wonderful condo!

  • As a group of four, we had a fab time in this condo for our first holiday in Canada. The Condo is superb, cant be faulted in any way. Close to Downtown and easy distance from the Saddledrome. We travelled to Banff, Lake Louise and Drumheller without a hitch and really enjoyed our time spent in Calgary. Blaise was so very accomodating and a nice chap, thank you for making our holiday simply the best! Jo, Shaun, Anna and Ashley.

  • My husband and i stayed in this beautiful condo along with 2 friends for our first holiday in Canada! We had such a fantastic time. The condo is perfect, luxurious in fact. The location is wonderful, easy access to down town and great for travel further afield. We visited Banff, Lake Louise and Drumheller with no probs. Also the Saddledrome is in easy reach, we enjoyed a Bull riding night! Blaise is cool to deal with, very accomodating and a decent fella. Now that we are in love with Calgary, we will be sure to book this Condo again in the future! Thanks Blaise, best wishes Jo, Shaun, Anna and Ashley.

  • "BETTER THAN THE HILTON" could not have put it better myself. We are the family who stayed for 2 weeks in July.08, our family in Calgary booking it for us. (See previous review) From the start we were welcomed by the lovely, jolly Blaise (the owner) at the entrance of the building, helping us with our luggage. He explained everything to us about the building etc., and then left leaving his mobile number in case we needed him (which we didn't) but he still rang us twice during our stay to make sure everything was O.K. The Condo lacked for nothing, it was clean, modern and it had everything you required from pots,pans and every gadget you could wish for. The location was fantastic,transport, restaurants,food store, shops etc., were all nearby. My favorite place was the balcony, as l'm an early riser,l would get my coffee and sit and watch the world go by, with fantastic views like that l was always inspired, also after a day out, we would sit out and watch the sun set, we even watched the Stampede prossession go by from the balcony, that was great not having to jostle with the crowds. I would also like to add that all our visitors were very,very impressed and said they would definately be booking the Condo for friends and business associates that visit in the future. May l finish by thanking our family for booking as they say a "GEM" for us, and lastly to Blaise for allowing us to stay in his beautiful Condo. On behalf of myself, James my hubby, and Deb's my daughter many,many thanks... Sue.

Our stay was brilliant, everything we could ask for and more, the Condo did not want for anything, every plate,dish and gadget was there. My favorite place was the balcony, l'm an early riser, so l would sit on the balcony with my coffee and watch the world go by, with an amazing view like that l was kept inspired, also after a full day out we would sit out and watch the sun go down. These are some of my memories, l could go on for ever. I must also add that our visitors also was very,very impressed, and said they would be booking the Condo for all friends and business associates who visit in future. Lastly l cannot thank my family enough for finding as they put it 'A GEM" and lastly not forgetting Blaise for allowing us to stay in your beautiful Condo. From myself, James my hubby, and Deb's my daughter, thankyou so much, and if we come back to Galgary, we will definately be staying again with you. Sue.X

  • I booked this condo for relatives coming into the city from the UK for a 2 week holiday during Stampede. What can I say, Everything about this was smooth from start to finish. Unbelievable, fabulous views, beautiful building, spacious and luxurious. Great downtown location. This is one of Calgary's best kept secrets for sure. Icing on the cake is the owner Blaise, this man is a STAR, falls over himself trying to please and is a true gentleman. For business or pleasure, this will be our 1st choice everytime. Thanks for a fabulous holiday rental Blaise, we could not have asked for anything more. Kindest Regards, Barb Wilson
