Great location and comfortable space. I did find spots on the sheets under one of the pillows which made my stay more uncomfortable though. Breakfast being included was nice and parking being free was also nice.

Hotel was in tip top shape. Room was large and clean as were the common areas. We had an early flight out of Ottawa so we didn't use the shuttle as it starts running at 5:00 AM and we needed to be at the airport before then. It's about a 6 minute drive to the Ottawa airport.

Clean, modern, spacious room. Very comfortable chaise lounge chair in room. Polite and helpful check in process despite being very busy with a hockey tournament. Some hallway noise with kids running and doors slamming due to hockey players but this did not interrupt our sleep. Convenient and easy access location.
