The location is certainly a major selling point: the rooms (at least, the one we stayed in) were right beside the beautiful Ottawa river. We arrived early enough to enjoy the sunset: on the dock there's a small bench, and we noticed that couples staying at the motel would take it in turns to stroll out there and enjoy the... More
