Monki-Di Executive Suites - Alura

Disappointing Experience at Monk-Di Executive Suites-Alura From the start, the owner’s communication was abysmal. Despite arriving at a very reasonable hour (5 PM), we had no way to get into the unit. Multiple attempts to reach the owner went unanswered, leaving us stranded and frustrated in the cold. When we finally managed to access the suite (from a stranger letting us in the building), we had to wash all the dishes - lip stains on them—completely unhygienic and unacceptable for a supposed “executive suite.” Despite this, we went out of our way to leave the place cleaner than we found it, only to be completely ignored when requesting the return of our $500 damage deposit. Today is day 3 with no response, which is both unprofessional and unethical to not respond at all. The booking site has been helpful and is monitoring the situation. I would not recommend Monk-Di Executive Suites-Alura to anyone. Especially those looking for an ‘Executive Suite’ - the unit and its furnishings are far from Executive. The lack of communication, poor cleanliness, one shared key and struggle to get damage back make this experience one I’d prefer to forget. Save yourself the hassle and book elsewhere.

The property was close to many amenities and easy to locate. One suggestion I would make would that extra sheets and towels be provided. However, I would stay again!

Fabulous property with all amenities, great location and view, all for incredible value

Great location - very limited basics available in cupboards for cooking.

Loved how close property was to stampede, mall, bars and restaurants. Would definitely recommend

I certainly left it cleaner than I found it. It look 3 mugs before I got a clean one, the utensils still had food on them in the drawer. I had to buy dishwasher tabs, laundry detergent, fabric softener, hand soap, shampoo and conditioner, toilet paper, Kleenex, paper towel. There were two bath towels and two face cloths, no hand towel. I had to do laundry everyday to have clean towels and face cloths. I felt guilty with the request to reduce water usage! There wasn’t event a bottle of water in the fridge. Rugs are so gross, flooring needs an update. Sofa was horrible to sit on and get off, no legs. Now the positive: Very safe, great to have Landry in suite, ug parking was great, concierge was great. View was great. Bed was very comfortable. Very walkable! Location was great.

The apartment was clean but the bedroom felt cramped. The bed was comfortable though. The couch was uncomfortable and low. We had no hot water to speak of. Having a 10 minute shower we were lucky to get any warm water. There are a lot of rules to follow with hefty fines if the rules were not followed.

It was great! Homey and comfortable, the ac didn’t seem to work super well but we made do!

Great trip to Calgary

Ac didn't work. No wifi. Hard to get into

Nice place to stay, will book again if there is trip to calgary

Thanks a lot. I will book it again definitely.

Great view from the balcony. Unfortunately there wasn’t access to the gym as advertised. A lot of homeless people in the area which made walking around a little uncomfortable.

Very good experience. Everything is great

Our stay in Calgary was excellent. All check in and out instructions were clear and the hosts were very prompt with responding to any questions that we had. The unit is lovely, very clean and organized. It is ideal for pairs and boasting a stunning view of the Saddle Dome. The room has a very clean aesthetic with a full kitchen which made our stay very convenient. The included parking was definitely a bonus, we were able to walk all around the city without driving. We will definitely be staying here again if the room is available.

Perfect for what I needed. Handy to the city & groceries.

The location of this hotel is perfect! You can to 17th ave with a quick walk or scooter ride. I really can’t complain about anything this unit had to offer

This property is a small but cute apartment. It is right across the street from the C-Train and close to lots of restaurants, pubs and the Stampede grounds. The street traffic can get pretty noisy at night, so bring earplugs.

Fabulous location, great condo. Had a couple of minor hiccups but the owner/manager was available and on the spot. I will stay there again for sure!

A perfect location, very clean with all amenities and excellent communication
