As was the case last time we stayed, very clean and courteous staff. If I had one suggestion, maybe a pool or something for any kids that stay. We’ve been very happy with this motel. Close to the airport is an asset also!

Excellent place. Even though this inn is near Ottawa international Airport, there's no loud noise nearby. The rooms are nice, comfortable and quiet. The washroom had the basic amenities. Really loved the place.

This was my second time staying there, first was October 2024, I was glad it was available again this year. I liked location, the easy access, drive right to front door and open grounds with open grassed area and lawn chairs, easy to relax which is what I needed on both occasions because of family deaths. I will be returning next year to Ottawa from BC and the Inn will be the first place I look for accommodation.
