I love the railroad hotels across Canada. I have a loosely guarded secret that I wish to visit every one, and for the most part they are owned by Fairmont Hotels. This is a CN hotel owned by Delta, so despite not being a Fairmont, I made an exception, wanting to stay in the most impressive hotel I know of on Saskatoon's South Saskatchewan river. When I was invited to supervise an exam across town, I happily walked the 5 km to stay at this special place.

| The solution to the storage problem with a pedestal sink. |

| Foyer with hooks and a great lamp with moulding on the doors. |
