The hotel is in the Byward Market area, a perfect location for walking to shops, restaurants, and to major bus routes and the o-train line at Rideau Centre. Breakfast is included and had a good variety of hot and cold items. The staff were wonderful, friendly and very helpful. We arrived very early in the morning our first day. The front desk staff cheerfully stored our bags and allowed us to eat breakfast even though we had not checked in yet! We would definitely stay here again!
