++++ What Is Expected Of You ++++
No smokers and no smoking. Absolutely no smoking, drugs or partying on the property. No perfumes or scented products, please.

Absolutely no eating or drinking in your bedroom. Enjoy meals in the dining room or kitchenette or living room or on the back porch.
*** Bed Bug Note ****
We do NOT have bed bugs and never have, because of our extensive prevention program. Make sure wherever you stay in Calgary has a thorough bed bug prevention program.
Certain areas of Calgary are experiencing a serious and increasing rise in the cases of bed bugs. In planning your visit to Calgary you would be wise to consider this. Alberta is the only inhabited place on the planet without rats. Alberta also does not have termites, fleas or cockroaches. But Calgary has bed bugs.
In our home we go to extraordinary lengths to prevent bed bug infestation. It is very difficult to get rid of bed bugs so we are deeply committed to safe, non toxic methods of prevention. Before you rent any place enquire as to their bed bug prevention program.
