Super 8 by Wyndham Edmonton South
The staff were great. The pool was okay but not very big and only 3 ft deep. The hot tub is not very hot at all. The heater had a loud squealing noise coming out of it all night which made it had to sleep. The breakfast wasn’t the greatest. For the price I wouldn’t pick this hotel again.
