A nice surprise every time
I’m grateful for the existence of this gem of a hotel: it’s the best combination of sensible pricing and most every luxe amenity you’d want (fast internet! Nespresso machine! Bathrobes! Iron and ironing board! Great mattress, linens and duvet) that I know of, just a short walk from the NAC, the Rideau Centre, etc.

6/10 Good

This is a gorgeous hotel in a perfect location, and would be ideal if you just need a comfortable bed to stay in while you spend all day out and about. You'll have access to beautiful walks, nice coffee shops and restaurants. The owner is extremely friendly and pleasant. As far as cons, the rooms are very small and the use of space isn't great. I found myself knocking things over a lot, and I'm fairly petite so I feel like if I was taller or broader, I wouldn't have been able to comfortably use the facilities. I do feel the small rooms could be work-able if they were re-arranged. There was a really nice desk right by a very sunny window, but I found I wasn't able to take advantage of it as the Wi-Fi was unstable. Again, could be a wonderful place to stay depending on what you're looking for.

10/10 Exceptional

When we first arrived at the hotel I did not like the room, it was much smaller then expected, not much more room then the bed and a small area to walk around. The bathroom was also extremely small especially for my 6’2 boyfriend. BUT the staff made the stay altogether. The front desk lady was so so so sweet. She was so pleasant and helpful. Had an umbrella I could borrow, a cork screw for my wine. I had a terrible experience with an Uber driver there who wouldn’t return my phone I had left in the car and she let me call my mother from her own personal phone to let her know. She was so sweet and understanding when I was crying and very upset about the situation. Next time I would like to get a bigger room but overall the hotel was so clean, so cute. The area around the hotel was very questionable unfortunately (lots of homeless, drugs, sketchy people) but felt safe in the hotel as there was 2 doors to get through that could only be done with a room key.

Best beds, lovely host Euro feel!!
Sabena, the owner of about 40 years, is AMAZING and lovely and so are her staff. They will take you back to a standard of warm hospitality from years past. Note: no children at the hotel. Sincerely suggest you call Sabena prior to booking for her to explain this unique hotel. It’s super clean, beds are sooo comfortable and there’s lovely spaces to meet fellow travellers. Great location and recommendations.

8/10 Very Good

Staff and the property itself were very nice! The place had a lot of care put into it and it showed. The bed itself was extremely comfortable and the room was a very cosy. The toilet took some time to refill so we needed to wait a few minutes before the other could use it. The shower was extremely small but the showerhead had good water pressure. The area was very convenient, with the hotel being very close to both byward market and the rideau center. We noticed a lot of homeless people and other sketchy people around the area but that is more of an overall Ottawa issue it seems. The hotel itself is extremely safe, with no one being able to enter it unless you either buzz in or have a room key to scan. Overall good experience!

Only 4 parking spots, you pay $20 for a day and are not allow to move you car otherwise you will lose your spot and the money! I asked to buy a water bottle and was told to drink from the faucet because the water is drinkable! If you want to go there and sleep for a night go! But don’t expect anything great if you are looking for a real hotel don’t go to this place! I left after one night and went to a better place for $30 more in downtown Ottawa! This place is not worth $150 per night! I wouldn’t pay no more than $60
