Radisson Hotel & Conference Centre West Edmonton
The staff were great as usual, the only issue with the room was there were a few spots that were missed with the vacuum. The bathtub plug was broken in order to keep the water in you had to place the plug carefully so it was balanced flat

+Beds and linens are excellent. Pillows are great. Spacious rooms. Location is unbeatable. Staff are great. L1 and L2 lounges are nice. -Can be loud in the room at night. Only 2 elevators can lead to wait times. No stairs. The hotel room key app is buggy.
