"This hidden gem was the perfect neighborhood while we settled our daughter into school. It’s within walking distance of UOttawa, and the location couldn’t be better — plenty of amenities and restaurants nearby. The suite itself was a bit dated, but spotlessly clean, with a comfortable bed and cozy bedding. Staff were warm and helpful throughout our stay, and the included breakfast was a great value for the price. Ten thumbs up — highly recommend!"

"The only weird thing was their public washrooms were gendered when they were single stalls. Why did I have to wait to use the washroom when it was no different than my room? I assumed there were multiple stalls because it was gendered. But it wasn’t. I could’ve uses either stall. Don’t gender unnecessarily."
