Breakfast was sent back i ordered sausage and eggs the sausage was obviously deep fried or burned in an oven the toast was plain wonder bread with some kind of margarine smashed all over it. My wife ordered pancakes that were stone cold and crusty hard. It was awful.

Days Inn by Wyndham Calgary South
Good breakfast, good parking, amenities could be nicer just by staying on top of the little things that make a big difference to guests. Tennis table paddles and ball was broken and couldnt be used and also thr chairs are missing cushions so you cant really sit on them.
