Old dirty hotel with everything falling apart. No baseboards in hallways, tub birty or in need of replace of reglazing. I probably was nice once upon a time but now its just nasty. And old and stained everywhere. You should be embarrassed to show the nice pics on line of hotel then when you get there its a dirty old antique. Do yourself a favor and fix it or shut it down

The room was great, for the cost! A little dirty in the corners, needed a bit more of a thorough vacuuming. Bathroom was very clean. Overall we were happy with our short stay there.

They had no extra pillows, the door handle was broken so it was hard to get out. There were beer bottles and cigarette butts on the balcony.

Lobby appeared clean and kept. The floor I was on was in need of repair. Stained carpet in the hall, no baseboard, wall paint chipped and cracked. My room was very dated. Pink tiles and peeling ceiling paint in the bathroom and no exhaust fan. Bed was comfy. Barking dog in next room woke me at 2 am. Barked nonstop. I called front desk. Dog stopped soon after. But barked again at 2:30 and 4:30 am. Front desk has no staff in the morning. I had to call four times before reaching anyone in the afternoon to verify that the barking dog would not be in the hotel my second night ( I would have requested a room change, if so). I was there three nights and had absolutely no housekeeping services. No one emptied the garbage, tidied the bed etc. My last morning, the hotel manager was at the front desk. When I asked if it was normal not to have housekeeping during a three night stay, her response was an insincere “sorry, I’ll let them know”. Breakfast was a continental breakfast with toast, bagels, muffins, cereal, yogurt, coffee, tea and juice. Completely self serve. Garbage cans in the breakfast room were flip top style and absolutely filthy with dried on food and beverages on the lids. Never cleaned the entire time I was there. All in all, a reasonably priced place to sleep but not worth half what I paid. I will not stay there a second time.

This property was a surprise! While it is outdated and the furniture could use an update, the beds were comfortable... and the VIEW! Every room faces the Rideau Canal. The main entrance also faces the canal and the hotel is flanked by walking trails and green space. You can feel this place is steeped in history. It is an unique and interesting property for sure. One of a kind.

There was no hot water, no water pressure on the 5th floor. The bathroom was dirty, the heat didn't work properly. There was bird poop all.over the balcony and windows. The breakfast was not good at all, stale muffins and pastries, the cream for coffee was expired and 1 carton of milk was also expired. The vending machine for pop was priced wrong and took my money and the staff was no help at all with that. The beds were very comfortable.

Budget wise, it is a great place with full amenities (microwave, coffee maker, small fridge, etc.). Very comfy bed and spacious room. Standard free continental breakfast. What I liked the most is that the dining area is open 24/7 in case you need coffee, tea, juice, etc. Not that clean, but not dirty as well. View of smiths falls from the balcony in the morning was my best time of the day. Also it was very quiet (I was there in February and was told from January to March it is always that way), have no idea how will it be during the rest of the year. Receptionists are very helpful. Overall, I would recommend highly this place and probably will visit again.

Smell of Marijuana and freezing cold in hallway, had to buy febreze to be able to get to our rooms. No water for a lot of the night. Breakfast was less than ideal, I understand its off season but stale bread and muffins, cream that one was frozen and one was spoiled.
