The room was extremely hot without controls to lower the temp. Extremely small room making it overpriced for the space. No extras like mini fridge

Nice and affordable downtown Ottawa accommodation

Great stay over, calm and beautiful street in the downtown area. Owner and hostess is charming and very helpful. Room is rather small but very well prepared and very clean and cost.

Spent almost a full week here, Feb 2025. Loved it, would definitely stay here again. Room was clean, cosy, and quiet. Everything was modern and everything worked. Sabina at the front desk was excellent. Super friendly and helpful. Hotel is a 5 minute walk from pretty much everything in downtown Otawa. Close to Rogers Centre, Parliament, Rideau Centre, Rideau Canal, shopping, and dining.
