“A Year Later...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 October 2011

people found this review helpful

Well...just over a year since I last reviewed this property. Again, moving from Ottawa to the Maritimes. Stayed here again because the only motel in the east of the city that allows pets.

Unlike the summer when we stayed, it seems more of a long-term motel now. Might just be the time of year. I can't blame the hotel for the other 'guests' but just felt like I was staying in a homeless shelter for the sketchy characters that were 'living' there. I was convinced that one lady was a prostitute and the other "neighbors" next to us looked like they were crack addicts. Again, I guess I can't blame the hotel for how these customers dress or seem....but on the other hand....perhaps screening of 'long term' guests is wise. I did see one family pull up and check out their room...and as fast pack up and leave...I am guessing they were not impressed and went someplace else. Which is going to end up being the case...less customers.

On the plus side, free continental breakfast. Could stay with two dogs. The green area for dogs was clean..no unpicked up messes. The staff were friendly and were mindful of tidying up outside of the property as well.

This motel served the purpose for us..travelling with pets..just needing a place to stay for a few days..but would not stay here if we didn't have the dogs.

Room Tip: Great if travelling with pets. Ask for a lower level room on the backside towards the trees.

“Never Again!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 August 2011

This hotel was disgusting. Not only was the lobby dirty, the hallways smelled horrific and when we got into our room there was food all down the side of the bed skirt. They moved us to a different room only to have a dirty sink and tub. The breakfast was held in the dirty lobby which made us hesitant to even eat it. The only good thing was that it was located next to the highway.

Positive point: close from a mall. That's it. Hotel was not so clean, smelled, matress was horrible. Complimentary breakfast is basically bad coffee and greasy muffins. And the Internet... well... let's just say I hope you are patient!

“No Comfort here”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 July 2011
1
person found this review helpful

Wow! Where was the comfort? We picked this place for it's location and being pet friendly, but didn't realize the pets included black ants. We killed a dozen during our stay. When I asked for towels from the desk clerk (offering to take them up myself), he said he would bring them right up. After an hour we cancelled the request, since he hadn't shown up yet (guess he was too busy watching his streaming video online).
The room was very "worn" and there was some sort of red stain sprayed across the ceiling that an attempt had been made to remove.
We will not be back and would not recommend a visit.

“People and Pet Friendly!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed here as a family moving from the Maritimes to Ontario for 3-4 days. We chose this hotel as it is "pet-friendly". We had a lower level rooms (2) which was perfect for taking the dogs out. Luckily there is green-space around the back of the property.

The downfall is that we were going to be located more in the east of Ottawa and there aren't any hotels closer to the east end.

The cleaning lady was great..always knocked as she knew we had two dogs.

The continental breakfast was as at other hotels but there was always lots to chose from and they never ran out...crampt quarters as it is served right in the small lobby, but you will get something.

During the weekdays, there seemed to be many truck and construction type of people hanging around the back of the hotel. Some seemed to be staying there...but I am not sure if some were using it as a "park and ride" to work. Bus transit is the way to travel around Ottawa..but it is hard to find a place to park in order to get the public transit..so many businesses 'sell' parking passes. Again, I can't say this hotel was doing that..but I just couldn't figure out the added cars that were not there overnight or the men hanging around.

The rooms seemed a little tight..two queen beds..not alot of space by the table/microwave set up.

Overall, this hotel suited our needs very well and we would stay there again.
