Great location for eashy walking to all of downtown Ottawa's sites. Lacking of on-site parking initially seemed like a drawback but the underground lot nearby was safe and secure and we didn't need our vehicle for the time we were there.

Good property overall. The only downside was the expensive downtown public parking since the hotel doesn’t have a parking right now.

Decent hotel that is pretty well located. Overnight parking is a hassle and not always easy to find. Overall good experience for the price but there is more going around the byward market which is 20 minutes away by foot.
