Great little hotel.
Room i had was great for 1 person. Not big like the larger hotels but I did not need all that room. There was kitchenette so you could eat in. My room had a patio area so you could sit outside. Staff were friendly and place was clean.

Great find in Ottawa
We enjoyed our stay here very much! The staff was very friendly and helpful with local information. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very good as well and the selection was just enough. Parking garage was right next to hotel for our pickup truck and reasonably priced. We will definitely be back again!

A lovely gem - modern building set in historic Lowertown. Wonderful breakfast included. Don't forget to check out the paintings in the stairway. Staff were very friendly, super helpful.
