Visit Edmonton

Was not a great trip to Edmonton because of the hotel mess up my whole trip ,I had to make different arrangements and spend money that wasn't budget to spend. Worst trip ever .With 3 kids to care for was pretty rough.

I showed up for my reservation, waited in queue and my turn to checkin came, the front desk woman asked if "I WAS DELIVERY GUY (OR DELIVERING SOMETHING)" basically, she did not think a black man was here to stay in hotel, VERY RACIST ! after booking and confirming my booking (booking.com) and calling hotel to confirm reservation. The hotel refused to accept Visa debit payment, at 10:30 PM, I had to call around and find another place to stay. Already my experience was worse enough even if they did accept my reservation I wouldn't have stayed.

Edmonton is a great city! Super affordable with lots of things to do, but you have to plan the time that you come to catch the right events. People are friendly here, you just have to be aware of yourself as you travel as there are some homeless people downtown - they don't bother you, but its just means you should stay on main streets and you'll be fine.

We live in Calgary so we often take three to five mini holidays. We come up so hubby can gamble and I can do whatever I want or don’t want to do. We take in local markets, drive around exploring, go to west Edmonton mall, just do whatever.

I was there for a family emergency so it was as long as it needed to be. I used to live in Edmonton and although I still have many friends and family there, it isn't my home anymore. The city has changed a lot. The public transit is miserable and really expensive for what is there. The city is super dirty and the parks that are still there, are really not well maintained. I used to work at the Legislature and was able to attend there to meet some old friends but it just felt wrong. I think Edmonton is a shadow of what it used to be. Too bad. Would I recommend it as a travel destination? Well maybe WEM but otherwise I can't imagine why anyone would go as a travel destination. Just another city with nothing really special to offer. I do still recommend going to Japanese Village for dinner however. Still the same show and good food.

Great place to visit. People are nice and friendly. The hockey is great! I hope to return someday, preferably in summer. I relied on being driven to places and all of the drivers were very nice and helpful.
