GLOBALSTAY. Downtown Calgary Apartments

This property is NOT a true 2 bedroom. One bed is in a den area with no enclosure/door/wall, and is right next to the kitchen. The door to the only bathroom in the unit is also a foot away from the bed. Midnight washroom users can tickle the toes of people in the bed! Water in the shower does not get hot enough. It’s barely warm enough to stay in, but nowhere near hot enough for a relaxing shower. Washroom and kitchen faucets got up to proper temperature, just not the shower head. This management company also makes you prepay $500 as a damage deposit and does not refund it until 2 weeks after the end of the stay - way too long. I indicated 2 people were staying in the unit and expected 2 sets of keys. Only one set was provided and another set could be given for a $50 fee (non refundable). Strongly discourage business travellers and those who need privacy from booking this unit. Get a hotel or another condo, the hassle of the money saved is not worth it here.

The check in process is a bit difficult. Meaning the keyless entry screen doesn’t work super well. I have stayed here twice and I love the building and rooms, but, both times I needed tenants to help. The screen needs a certain touch and the tenants advised that using keys works best (the tip of the key).

This was a really great corner apartment that matches the pics and was fully stocked. Comfortable and safe. Check in was super easy. Views of downtown were incredible. Didn’t get to check out the lounge and gym maybe next time. Wifi was on point. Loved my time here.

The only thing we didn’t like is that it started snowing late in the evening. Therefore they started cleaning the sidewalk at 4 am. We did not feel it was next. Extremely noisy

Nice & close to the Saddledome . Condo was clean and comfortable. Good value , I would definitely stay here again .

The apt wasn't cleaned properly. Floors weren't washed, carpet was disgusting. Need looked like it had been slept in so I pulled back the sheets and found at least 15 long, dark hairs. Hair in both bathrooms, old coffee in maker which was so gross. Bathmats had crusty toothpaste on them. Urine on the back is toulet.I had to wash sheets, towels, etc at 1am so I could feel comfortable sleeping in the bed.

We enjoyed the views from our suite and the location was very convenient. The condition of the unit left much to be desired. The furnace air filter was extremely dirty, as was the cupboard it was in. The carpet must have been original to the unit when it was built and was very worn and not clean. The kitchen was extremely unclean: the oven looked as though it had never been cleaned and the stove top had a burnt on crust around each burner. Counter tops felt greasy and there was no lighting in the corner where the sink is. I could go on, but this will give you an idea.

This is an apartment building- which I was aware of… photo’s of valid government ID with selfie needed for each person staying -Asked numerous times. Vehicle information sent numerous times. $500 deposit per person paid prior to stay or no access code to get in building. Still had problems as the wrong code was emailed to us. If you breath too loud DD not refunded… Never again!

The view was great, but the bathrooms were not clean, hair on the floor, tub dirty, poor communication for check in….

Everything was just perfect!!!!
