Get away weekend for dinner and a show. In the Byward Market area. Staff were pleasant. Our room was clean. Microwave, fridge, dishes etc. Mattress was in need of an update - comfortable but a little saggy in the middle. Close to shopping restaurants etc.

Cozy little character hotel in an interesting neighbourhood. The room was clean and well-equipped. My only complaint is that the pillows were hard and flat. Otherwise would recommend.

Will definitely return!
Great stay! Room was spacious and clean, I liked the small kitchenette and supplies that were available. Bed and pillows was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good and above average than what I was expecting. Only downside was on site parking was limited so I had to park down the road at the city lot which ended up being cheaper anyways but not as convenient. Will definitely be back!

The property itself was good, the room was comfortable and provided a good nights sleep. The balcony was also nice although not really used this stay and the view was of the courtyard below.

Front desk and general staff were amazing. The canvas art everywhere artfully lit in the stairwells, the rooms, breakfast room and even the stained glass details in the transom windows were lovely. Clean, comfortable, homey, with a touch of jazzy history located in the heart of walking distance to everything made our short trip here memorable and sold us on coming back! Lyft service was fantastic too! Oh, and super comfy beds as well. Should be a 4 star!
