We are so grateful for the kindness shown by staff at this location. Our flight out of Ottawa was canceled, so needed to book a last minute stay. The staff offered help in several ways allowing us to return our rental car on time and get to the airport in time for our flight the next day - in addition to a comfortable stay.

Room was super clean. A good size. It was nice having the sofa bed area separate from the bed/sleeping area, and with its own TV! Makes travelling with kids a bit easier. We were just staying the night to catch an early flight so we didn’t get to breakfast. Convenient options close by for dinner though. Everything was as it should be. Shuttle was on time. Would stay again!

Dear Hotel Management, I'm writing to express my disappointment with my recent stay at your hotel. Upon arrival, I was greeted with silence from the front desk staff, which set a poor tone for the rest of our stay. The room we were assigned, 323, had a persistent noise in the ceiling that made it impossible to sleep. We suspect it may have been related to the leak in the hallway, which we noticed was causing water to collect in the garbage can outside our room. To make matters worse, we experienced significant travel delays the previous day and were exhausted. Given the circumstances, I expect a certain level of comfort and accommodation, especially at a hotel charging over $300 per night. Our scheduled shuttle was a disaster, with no sign of the driver at the appointed time and no updates from the front desk. The offer to call a cab was made, but we received no follow-up, and the shuttle ultimately arrived late, causing us to rush to catch our flight. I hope you understand our frustration and will take steps to address these issues, including improving staff training and maintenance protocols. I would appreciate a response by email regarding the actions you will take to prevent similar experiences in the future. Sincerely, Stephane Belisle & Wayne Keith
