Conveniently located right on the Rideau and walking distance to restaurants and other amenities.
Rooms were clean but Halls could use some updates. All in all was a perfect fit for our needs.
Its like balcony door stuck also full of pigeon poop toilet didn't flush properly bathtub drain clogged (i fixed) room small bed was a double not a queen i think so overall its an older hotel i won't be staying their again.
Beside the Rideau Canal.In need of some basic maintenance.

Inside was great but outside windows had a lot of pigeon poop on them. Our room had a balcony so no poop on our windows. Hotel was extremely clean. Very well looked after.

The staff was friendly. The property needs some TLC. We did our own garbage and towels. Saw house keeping once in the hall in three days. The price is right for what is offered.
The location was great for our needs during our stay. The view from our room of the river and boats was gorgeous. The back of the lodge view was unpleasant.(where parking was) The lodge itself was a tad run down and could use new carpets and a paint job . The elevator was extremely tiny, but did the job for getting up and down to our floors. There is a restaurant pub attached to the lodge which looks good but we didn't go inside.
Breakfast needs to be improved, as it was only toast, bagels, cereal and yogurt. It had coffee and juice all day which was convenient. We had a couple hiccups upon check in but the manager was fast and efficient on resolving the issues and she was very pleasant and friendly.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and liked the lodge.
The property doesn’t feel safe. Seems like they just made hotel in an old property. Staff is friendly and well informed.

An average hotel in a good location.
The check in was easy, the facility is ok (so-so), the cleanliness is not that great, the building is old, need renovation. The breakfast is minimal. The location is good, the view from the balcony is good. Parking is okay.
