The place was clean, rooms were updated, staff was friendly, priced fairly, but walls were not soundproof (it's an old building). Traffic was loud and we could easily hear through the walls. The complimentary ear plugs were a nice gesture, but doesn't change the building.

Was the nicest ‘economy’ motel room I’ve ever stayed in. Room was clean, nice fixtures that all worked. Could have a microwave (didn’t need), some of the floor tiles were cracked and was susceptible to noise and vibration from the neighbours, but none of these were a big deal.

Great rooms, perfect check-in, super clean, comfy annnnnnnd the worst acoustic stay of my life. The walls are thinner than paper. The construction is wood and it’s old creaky wood so you hear every step, every word, every truck. The place is perfect except for the absolutely intolerable noise that will definitely happen around the clock as it is right now at 1am. There is not a chance I will return at any price.

The hotel receptionist, Ethan, was friendly and informative. He answered questions i was thinking of asking before i even got a chance to ask them. Very impressed with Ethan's phone call about 30 minutes into our stay to check to see if everything in the room was as we liked and if we needed anything else. First time in all my travels that this has happened.... adds a touch like visiting friends!

Room was comfortable and spotless. Very impressed with all the little nice details that really made a difference; a personalized welcome letter from Manager, cozy bathrobes, a courtessy call from the front desk 30 min after check in to ensure I was confortable and found everything right, high quality bed sheets. Definitely an unexpected surprise, but a very good one. No doubt all staff members understand and are commited to deliver the real meaning of what hospitality means since you can see it in every item found in the room and interaction you have during your stay! Congratulations to them all.

I’ve stayed at Centro Motel the last few years when I come to Calgary for a specific event. This location is very close to the venue and on the edge of town, which avoids us completely having to go into the city. Our stay was comfortable, clean, and staff was excellent. A little slow on the check-in process but overall I’m very happy with this accommodation and we’ll return in the future.

Unfortunately we used to LOVE staying here. I believe possibly the ownership has changed. I’m unsure. But I’ve stated previously a few times and always had a good experience. This time, not great at all. Started at check in. Stops around for almost 15 mins. I called the hotel from standing inside the hotel. No answer. Yelled multiple times “hello”. Went into the back room yelling hello. Was just ready to leave when a guy came walking through the parking lot “surprised” that someone was at the office. Check in went okay after waiting for the person to find us. After checking in the room looked good. Bathroom is TINY. Shower was TINY, VERY TINY. Bed was nice. Room is clean. What has REALLY upset me, is that for the very first time in over 30 YEARS of traveling, I’ve had a company charge my card an incidental charge. They’re claiming we kept a robe, worth about $15-$20 at best, and they’re charging my card $75. They say they have a “triple verification system” to verify how many robes they have or something. And that we kept one. Which we did not. I explained we didn’t keep a robe. I’m 265lbs the robe didn’t even close. lol. They’re meant for smaller people for sure. Anyway. I said if you want to keep my $75 I’ll be leaving reviews everywhere I can. They’re doubling down. So here is my honest assessment of the hotel. Bed was nice. Area is very sketchy. Bathroom is absolutely cramped. Room is clean. Rooms are noisy. New management sucks terribly. Watch your deposit…

Front desk staff very friendly. Room very clean with a comfortable bed and pillows. No breakfast offered. Limited parking. Blackout curtains worked very well. Bathroom awkward - light outside the toilet with the fan automatically attached and a glass door that squeaked, all of which made it difficult to use in the middle of the night without waking others in your room. Also, we were on a bottom floor and we heard footsteps and distinctive voices from above. I would recommend staying in a top floor for that reason.

Don’t judge a book by its cover. This motel may look 70’s ranch but the rooms are great: fabulous beds and linens, great tv, excellent air conditioning, mini fridge, immaculately clean, even generous bath amenities: soap, body lotion, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, face towelettes. A Keurig coffee maker. Competent, helpful and nice front desk staff, especially Ethan who recommended nearby NoTables the restaurant and Leopold’s Tavern—both of which were great.

Centro is super clean and comfortable, the proprietors friendly, you can park in front of your room, and it's close to everything you need, including everything from fast food to high end dining (the walkable "Notable" restaurant). It's also a great slingshot to the mountains - right that the Calgary base of the highway to Banff and beyond.
