"The hotel location is great, downtown of Ottawa but it has lots of homeless people in hotel area, even 3-4 homeless just sitting right in front of hotel entrance, lucky they didn't make trouble or noises. The next day checked out when we drove out the town we seem more homeless people in there, it seems the crime might come easily, we was worried.

"Nous avons loué une suite à deux chambres que nous avons partagée avec un couple d'amis et nous avons adoré! Hôtel situé juste à côté du Rideau Center, à deux pas du Marché By, à une distance de marche du parlement et du canal Rideau, parfait comme localisation! Nous n'avons pu avoir deux stationnements mais on nous a dirigé vers celui du Rideau Center pour un prix similiaire. Endroits au garage pour ranger les vélos ou possibilité de les mettre à la chambre. Je recommande sans hésiter."
