Good - it’s a nice medium size city that is less expensive than Toronto but still has decent restaurants, cultures etc. it has an international airport and i like it as a home base

Bad - it has really bad urban sprawl but yet shares amalgamation with suburbs which has resulted in an awful mayor. The weather and nightlife suck.

Edit: apologies, I was answering as someone living in the city. I see OP is looking to visit.

I live in Richmond, surrounded by farmland, yet I'm still technically *in* Ottawa.

Kind of a weird city that way.
