Very good for price. Extremely hard working syaff, always on top of things and cleanliness. The breakfast was superb and you pretty much can not find better accommodation anywhere else for this price.

Location was perfectly central to Ottawa, which was convenient for a person visiting for the first time. I liked the rule of no shoes indoors, which made it feel homely and cozy. The dining area, plentiful silverware, and the large fridge felt impressive, especially on nights where I was the lone tenant. This was the most I felt like I was in a personal space rather than renting a room.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

The facilities were extremely clean and the staff were very helpful, the hostel was in a great location and I had zero complaints about the breakfast provided. The tour was amazing to do to understand the history of the jail so would highly recommend doing that

Interesting tour of the jail! Room dormitory give an affordable option and single bed cells are pretty cool and give a safe option for people that needs more privacy, I liked both.

The localisation is good, the hotel is clean and has an interesting atmosphere. I liked the coworking space. I really enjoyed my stay there. I think it is a great option if you like staying at youth hostels.
