This property had a lot of different items to make it homey and comfortable. The room was large and the breakfast had lots of choices. Really enjoyed our stay.
CanadaWhat we liked most was the size and quality of the room. If fact it was a small one-bedroom apartment. We also very much appreciated the free laundry room as we arrived in the middle of a two-week road trip so being able to clean clothes was great.
United States of AmericaFantastic location - walking distance to all major points of interest - and extremely spacious, very well equipped rooms. I was there for a work conference and really appreciated the work station and printer right in my room. The pre-packaged grab and go breakfasts were also very convenient for an early work start or day of sightseeing. Would definitely stay again!
United KingdomRoom was fine, would definitely use again for a business trip. Location was perfect. I came with my partner, it wasn't ideal for a romantic getaway but the cost was good and location was perfect. The room was ok, it matched my expectations for the cost.
CanadaVery spacious and well appointed room. Great for work or leisure. Very good breakfast with lots of choice.
VietnamThe staff really went above and beyond to ensure our stay was great as it could be! We ran into some issues with parking at the hotel because we had a UHAUL with us, but the staff at the reception desk brainstormed a solution that solved the issues right away. We are very grateful for their kindness. Also, the hotel location is terrific because it is right downtown so you are able to really experience Downtown Ottawa at such an affordable price! We walked right to the Parliament Hill. Definitely recommend!
