Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Calgary Downtown
Room was very hot. Checked in and the thermostat was set at 12c, yet I was sweating in my shorts. When it eventually did kick on, after having to open a window, it would beep then hiss, all night. Even after closing the window. Bathroom is very small, as in the door was about 28" wide, good luck ...
