Peace Tower is 2.6 km from the guest house, while Ottawa Convention Centre is 3.6 km away. The nearest airport is Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport, 10 km from Room #3 Ottawa downtown.

I loved that the location is decent. The owner was very responsive and I do appreciate that. The cleaners at the property were amazing as well. I don’t remember her name (I think Sabbah?) she was so caring and loving! I totally appreciate her. The property is filled with all the utilities that you need. I did not get to use them but it’s great to see that you will not be stranded. The house was very clean! It’s a shared bathroom but you might not even see other people around. The room was very spacious too! Overall, it was an amazing experience!

The spacious guest house with a balcony and garden views features 2 bedrooms, a living room, a flat-screen TV, an equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and an oven, and 2 bathrooms with a walk-in shower. Featuring air conditioning, this unit has a dressing room and a fireplace. The guest house offers bed linen, towels and laundry service.

Vast property with great amenities. I want to give extra feedback to the owner: we arrived in Ottawa just after the storm and half of the city had a power outage, but the owner sustained it by connecting the house to a generator, which provided us with lights, and internet, TV and essential appliances.

    The closed bedroom suite that we had met all our needs. The queen size pull out couch in the living room was the most comfortable that we have slept on. We enjoyed the breakfast with it's many choices and the coffee was good. It was nice to have fresh fruit and choices for hot oatmeal. We walked downtown Ottawa and visited Parliament, the War Memorial and the canal locks. Great location. The laundry facilities were exceptional and the staff was all very cheerful and helpful.

    I moved to Ottawa to start a new job and stayed in that apartment for 8 nights before my new apartment was ready to move in. Great location. Could go to downtown on foot every day. Close to the OTrain station Pimisi. Very handy. Nice quiet street. The apartment is really an apartment - with a full bedroom, a living-room, a kitchen with a spacious fridge and all equipment. Enjoyed my stay there - which helped me to come to my new work energized and happy, giving it a good start

    Pierre and his mother are wanderfull hosts. The house is located on a quiet street. All visited objects are easily accessible within walking distance. The host gave a lot of useful advice on where to go and what to see. The room is extremely clean. I finally slept in a very comfortable bed. The breakfast for me was made by his mom. I felt like I was visiting my grandmother, who pampered me with her delicious meals. I didn't expected so big hospitality.

    It was an amazing stay - would definitely go back there and recommend! Pierre is a great host. He was very helpful and made what I wanted for breakfast every morning! He knows a lot about his city and can recommend places to visit or activities to do. He dropped me at the train station on my last day which made me save a lot of time. Merci pour tout, Pierre! The B&B is well located in a quiet neighborhood 10 min-walk from restaurants and busy areas. The bathroom was clean; fresh towels and soap were provided. The bed was comfortable.
