We've stayed at Welcome Inn Ottawa few times over the last number of years. Their rooms are always clean and provide a great place for a good night sleep.The location is conveniently located closer to the major highways and the breakfast included is a plus.

Although I did not partake in the breakfast, my room was clean and the bed was super comfortable. The front desk staff were excellent with every encounter I had with them. The road construction in the surrounding area was unfortunate, but the hotel had nothing to do with that. I would definitely return on my next visit to Ottawa.

The room was clean, the staff was friendly, and I appreciated the included basic breakfast. I thought a room safe was a standard item in hotels but I was wrong. I should have paid more attention on the room description on Expedia. Overall, I had a good 3 day stay. It’s a basic hotel but I would recommend it.

Stay the heck away. Overpriced dump. This place was terrible. The shower drain was clogged. We reported it. They came in and fixed it only it still clogged. Water builds up and creates a very dangerous tub to step into. I slipped. They do not have safety gripes anywhere in that shower floor. Combined with the glass wall this is a super dangerous situation and a lawsuit waiting to happen here. There was a homeless person in the breakfast area one of our days. Definitely no security or concern for guests. She walked it, pulled her hat low to hide her face and loaded up her bags with foods.
