I was able to check-in early, which is always a bonus, and was upgraded to a room with a "view". Admittedly, the view wasn't great (I could see some trees in between two apartment buildings), but the room was spacious, comfortable, clean. I would have liked a place by the door to hang my jacket and purse, but otherwise, I didn't lack for anything. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the location makes access to various parts of the city easy either by walking or (nearby) public transportation.
The one criticism has nothing to do with the hotel. The figure hotels.com quoted did not include the following taxes, Alberta Tourism Levy and Destination Marketing Fund (which is a DAILY charge), so I paid almost $40CAD more than the quoted price.
