I had a chance to stay overnight at this hotel last summer. I was looking forward to it as I was familiar with the hotel for many years, and knew they had been renovating. My room was fitted with all the latest amenities, including:
-- A large bathroom with a great walk-in shower. (Who takes baths at hotels?)
-- A convenient kitchenette. (But no paper towels were provided.)
-- Wood laminate flooring and duvet covers instead of bedspreads. Let me explain why I am excited about these two things: I have spent a lot of time in hotels over the years, and I don't think I've ever seen a bedspread on a linen cart. Do they wash them? Frankly, I'm not sure. Washable duvet covers seem a little more hygienic to me. Same thing with flooring. It is much easier to keep laminate flooring clean than carpeting. I think this is the way of the future for hotels.
-- Other offerings were a comfy armchair, a flat screen TV, free wifi, ample free parking, and a good range of in-room lighting for everything from working to relaxing.
I enjoyed my stay and look forward to staying again, but I wish they offered day rates. I live just outside Ottawa and often only come in for the day. I don't need a hotel for the night, and the standard check-in and check-out times don't work for me. I'd use this hotel regularly if they offered day rates.Read more

Although the hotel was undergoing renovations and looked like a run-down apartment building (also was in a sort of ""ghetto"" neighbourhood), the hotel was actually quite decent and nice inside. It looked like a hotel at least. The front desk staff were pleasant and friendly. I liked the fact that they didn’t charge for parking (which if we would have stayed on the other side of the bridge in downtown Ottawa, they would have). There was just a lot of construction going on and at times was very noisy (if you opened the room window/balcony). The staff were very accommodating. Room was always cleaned well and washroom was fine (only complaint is the hot water in the shower was a bit weird -- kept changing from hot to cold on some of the days). Overall it was quite a decent hotel for the price. I wouldn’t mind staying here again if I can’t get anything cheaper/similar quality downtown.Read more
