The room needs a microwave. The curtains could be larger to block more of the street lights at night. The bathtub was narrow and shallow. The room has soap dispensers. I bought my own bar of hand soap. Otherwise, the room and facilities were clean and comfortable.

Honestly, it doesn't look like much from the outside (especially the flickering sign), but the rooms are pleasantly clean and comfortable and the price was right - and for us the location (South Ottawa) was good. I would definitely stay there again.

Classic, no frills motel style accommodation. Spotlessly clean, comfortable for the one night we stayed and the price can’t be beat. Would stay again, no question.
