This has been a favourite of my partner and Inot; but the service is amazing, breakfast is appreciiatedand we love the cabins. You can close the door and have a fully private, quiet room feeling like you're away from the city.

Don’t stay here
This is a scam, it’s not as advertised. This is someone’s house. The hosts live there with their family. They are very rude and caused me to leave early. The room is off to the side of the house through a muddy walkway. It’s a loud space with no privacy, there is a glass door covered with a thin curtain in the bedroom. The house is in a residential area that is not walkable at all. Street parking is available. I was offered the driveway but woke up to the host banging on my door asking me to move my car. The locks on the outside of the house is remotely controlled by the owner, he disabled the lock twice during my stay causing me to be locked out.

We didn't know this place offered these rooms in the basement. It was so noisy at night and early morning. We heard people walk upstairs and make lots of noise before 6 AM. Will not come back here. Such a bad experience.

Beautiful suites in a lovely family's home. We had the deluxe with our own bathroom and shared kitchen/living room area but the room has its own TV so if you wanted complete privacy it's just like a standard hotel room. Parking was limited but there was street parking on the adjacent streets and was less than a minutes walk. The neighborhood was also very quiet and safe feeling. Relatively close to everything but Ottawa is a bigger city than I expected so there still was some driving. This was a great place and for the price I think it went way above and beyond expectations. Thank you to the family for hosting.
