Toronto Don Valley Hotel and Suites
Old and dated. Cleanish - maybe don’t look too hard. This however is acceptable considering the relatively affordable rates for the location.

Cartier Place Suite Hotel
Room interior is old and tired looking but it is spotlessly clean and well equipped. Our room was a suite. Full kitchen was great. Only thing we needed was a spatula. Great location to restaurants, museums, and Byward Market. All walkable. We will stay here again for our next visit to Ottawa
