It’s a university residence, open to the public during the quiet summer months. Read the Expedia description. Its honest. Don’t go expecting hotel amenities. That’s why it’s far more affordable than anything in the vicinity. Conveniently located near everything you’d want to see in Ottawa. Imagine you’re a student and you’ll be happy as a clam.

The condition of mattresses are terrible, feel like it had been used for over 10 years. We were not able to sleep properly. Parking lot got full, no other option for parking.

The location is perfect for walking down to the Parliment hills and other places. The room I lived has no curtain and it's face the street. I spent three nights in this hotel and complained twice about the curtain and the front clerk noted it, but never solve my problem. The most ironic thing is the facial tissue box is empty, when we asked for it, the staff said they don't have any.

Tried reaching the phone number provided aboutbour delay in arrival but none responded. Receiption was good and welcoming We entered the room and there was service going on for the door and the manager who was supervising it was smoking inside the room and it was very annoying and uncomfortable. Except for the cigarette smoke which was terrible, room as clean. The bed was very uncomfortable for 2 people. Apt for student accomodation. Overall it was very easy to access and central location. Parking was good and access to downtown was great

There was one elevator working for 20 floors. The water stopped running in the morning. There are no utensils in the room. Their bathing soap is so cheap acidic. The room was very cold and the blanket was so thin. Over all this has to be my worst experience in short term hospitality. They can do better!!

The mattresses is supported by a basic metal frame with sharp corners. Because there was too little space between the bedframe and the wall, I hit my knee with the metal frame corner and got a bloody scratch from a, what I could see under further inspection was a RUSTED bed corner.

The price versus quality was AMAZING! I was not expecting too much but layout was spacious with 2 closed rooms & a closed bathroom. There was a fridge, and microwave in the kitchen area & a tv with roku in each room!.There were also vending machines in the lobby (though the drink one wasnt accepting coins). Parking was easy although l it filled up at night and there were maybe 3-4 spots left. My only issues: the shower pressure was very high and the water came out pretty hard. Also the metal bed frames are very sharp & my 5 year old scraped her leg pretty badly walking around the bed 😞 I ended up putting face clothes on the corners of the frame. I would still suggest this place hands down as its one of the best prices in town!
