What guests think

At Comfort Inn & Suites University, travelers frequently praise the friendly, accommodating staff and convenient location near the C-Train, Foothills Hospital, the university, and McMahon Stadium, while feedback on room condition, cleanliness, and facilities is notably mixed.

Many guests sleep well and find rooms spacious enough, but decor and furnishings are dated, with reports of loud air conditioners, sagging mattresses, lingering odors, and occasional Wi‑Fi or in-room maintenance issues. The pool with waterslide and hot tub is a family draw, yet frequent closures, private swim lessons, temperature or jet problems, and creaky elevators or out‑of‑order machines reduce reliability. Breakfast is widely appreciated for hot items and waffles, though seating can feel tight and quality varies at peak times. Best for value seekers who prioritize price over polish.

Facilities

Pool, waterslide, and hot tub are popular when available, but guests repeatedly report closures, private lessons limiting space, and maintenance issues (cold pool, weak jets). Elevators and machines (ice, vending) are sometimes out of order.

Blood stains on comforters and shower curtain. Bed rock hard. Pool open but hot tub & waterslide were closed due to alleged water restrictions (not posted on website). Yet, a 4star hotel next door had a running waterslide and hot tub! Thats where we will book next time.

Very old, musty smelling rooms. Poor water pressure in shower. Hot tub was closed. Pool was too cold. Elevator made very weird noises. Room almost smelled like old cigarettes or at least stale in a way we were not used to. Breakfast was minimal and the eggs/sausage seemed reheated and not fresh. Overall I would not recommend this although it was cheap.

Had a great time in Calgary! We were there for a football game. The only concern we had was the elevators! They clunked as they moved and since we were on the 4th floor we had no choice but to use them.

I liked the location and the proximity of good food locations within a few minutes walk. They also have a nice pool with a waterslide and a good breakfast for free. The downside was that nice pool was closed, the ice machine was broken, the vending machine selection was a joke. Signs everywhere you look "saying this (thing) is out of order", also, the fire alarm was going off for an hour after midnight.

The majority of the features were good, but the pool experience was disappointing. Every day, they had private swimming lessons occurring in the pool. While patrons were still permitted to enter the pool during these, the pool is not large, and swimming lessons take up a lot of space. When we tried to go in in the mornings instead to avoid the extra busy afternoon/evening, the pool often opened up to 20 minutes late.

I chose this hotel because it was less expensive, and had a pool with a water slide. There were lots of little things, such a poor and unfinished renovations, the morning we went to breakfast it was cold, small TVs with not many channels to choose from. All of this could have been overlooked if the pool wasn’t closed for maintenance and I was not notified ahead of time. I had messaged the property ahead of my trip to ask a question, but did not receive a reply, and when I called, no answer. My kid was pretty disappointed about the pool, would have been nice to know ahead of time.

The most important thing to me is cleanliness and a comfortable bed. I slept amazing all 5 nights, which is a testament to the comfort of the beds as I have major back issues and struggle with most beds. The hotel is kept clean as well. One thing that was a little sketchy is tye elevators, each day they alternated the "out of service " sign between the 2 elevators and they both sound like they are in need of major service. Getting stuck in an elevator is not an adventure I would enjoy. :-) The staff were all wonderful; friendly and helpful.

The water slide and hot tub weren't open during our stay. The hot tub was filled with hot water but they didn't want us to use it due to the water restrictions. We couldn't get it what does it have to do with water restrictions?! The water slide was completely closed. It was a bummer because we came with the kids. Disappointed 😞 The hotel next door had both hot tub and water slide opened and operational.

Good: free breakfast with options other than bread and cereal, staff were friendly and helpful, very close to the train station and a major highway. Bad: the local health authority closed the hot tub, the ice machine was broken (there's only one for the entire hotel), and there was mold in the bathroom fan (the thing meant to prevent mold) so I couldn't use it without the bathroom smelling. The fan had a sickly sweet smell, as though someone dropped a vape cartridge in it. Overall, the staff are doing the best they can (my linens were clean) but the hotel itself is in perpetual disrepair.

The room was due for a refresh. The paint was in poor condition, the arms worn through the armchair, the lap shades faded and cracked, and cigarette holes in the blinds. I wish that we had known that we were booked into a smoking room; the smell was strong, strong enough that you could smell it on our clothes. All first-world problems, but frustrating.

Went outside a lady was coming back inside with dishes, had went and sat in her car to eat. If you are offering breakfast, have a place where people can sit, not a little corner that holds maybe 20 people, there were other people standing waiting for a table also.
