This Hotel is good value for your dollar and is in a great location central to downtown Ottawa.
Pros:

Our room was great. Large, comfortable bed, nice bathroom, bar fridge and the best part was there were 2 comfy easy chairs (one with a foot stool) in the room so we could both relax without one of us having to sit on the bed or the desk chair. Staff were very friendly, especially the two Doormen (Hassam was one. Very pleasant). We also had breakfast at the Arc Lounge restaurant. The waitress was very nice and breakfast was yummy.

Cons:

The elevator was very slow and made me a bit anxious that it might not get to its destination. LOL.

Correcto
Pros:

Bien ubicado, habitación y baño correctos. El hombre que ayuda con el aparcamiento muy atento y agradable.

Cons:

Siendo que no era temporada alta y que no creo que el hotel estuviese al máximo, no me pareció correcto tener un dormitorio con una puerta que nos separaba de la habitacion contigua y por la que podíamos escucharlo todo como si se tratase de la misma habitación.
