Everything was perfect and clean. Two issues 1. the fan in the washroom was not working. 2. breakfast was perfect and fresh but was not enough space for all the people to seat. But everything was very good and relaxing. I would suggest this place to everyone.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property was close to Byward market, within easy walking distance. Unfortunately, across the street from the hotel on the route to Byward market is an area frequented by many panhandlers and people who are living on the street. Not their fault but if this type of atmosphere distresses you then maybe choose another location. Also underground parking lanes are very narrow and maneuvering is challenging. Friendly, helpful staff.
