Divya Sutra Plaza and Conference Centre Calgary Airport
We had a good stay but the water faucet for the shower was very hard to control and sometimes we could only get warm water out of the sink faucet. We stayed 6 days and did not want to move so we did not complain about the problem with the water. The internet is not the greatest.
