A dated hotel, but amenities are sufficient. Generally clean, but around the edges (bed skirt) could be cleaner/replaced. Pillows were terrible, but the beds were clean and comfy enough. Pool was fun for the kids, but again, the pool deck could be cleaned more often and could use some tlc.

The hotel is dated but in an excellent location, walkable distance to Parliament Hill and Byward market. Nice and quiet neighborhood. We had a view of the river and Parliament Hill which was very nice. Free parking was another nice feature. We had no problem with parking as it was during the quieter winter season. Staff is attentive when prompted. Overall no major complaints or compliments.
