Had to request a room change only to find the same problem in a room on second level. Management is making guests sign a form at check in stating they will be responsible for cleaning fees of $100. if smoking happens in room. I don't think this is working!! Poor ventilation. Tiny window that opens in front and no circulation (fan or window in bathroom). Property clean but rooms cleary have a musty smell...this is not pleasant and not what I want to breathe while on vacation.

A very nice inn. Clean, quiet, comfortable, safe (very important as a woman traveling solo), close to the city. The only thing I wish they had was wireless internet, but they did have wired and lent me a cable. Also allowed me to stay an hour past checkout. Both the maids and the front desk were very friendly. I had a great stay and would book here again.

You can't beat this little gem beneath the towering pines in a very busy location.
Older hotel, but clean, quiet and we felt sheltered/safe.
The staff was very friendly and helpful to two seniors visiting Ottawa for the first time with the family pet.
And the muffins in the office were a little added yummy bonus.
For the price we were quite happy with our holiday shopping mini-vacation and will stay here again in the future.

After a month-long cottage holiday in eastern Ontario, my family spent the night here before catching our morning flight home to BC. This was the perfect location for my needs. It is a 10 minute drive to the airport without the hassle of unpacking our rental car and dragging everything on a trolly through a hotel lobby. The motel is also a very pleasant drive (about 20 minutes) along the Rideau Canal to downtown Ottawa where we went for dinner and watched the light show at Parliament Hill (there are numerous chain restaurants, such as the Keg, a short drive away on Hunt Club Road).
While close to arterial roads, the property is set back from the road and built around a lovely grove of pine trees with plenty of muskoka chairs waiting for travellers to relax. We had a room with two double beds on the ground floor at the end of the 2 story building. As a bonus, I was able to hang our wet beach towels and bathing suits (from our last swim at the cottage) on the fence next to our unit.
The room itself was basic with a mini-fridge and an older tv. It was very clean (perhaps smelling a bit too much of disinfectant). The A/C worked and quickly cooled the room. We borrowed an iron and board from the office. The motel appeared full, but we heard no noise over at night. In the morning, the office had free newspapers, coffee and pastries. The service was friendly: the receptionist gave me a map of Ottawa with directions downtown.
