This was a quaint place to stay in the Byward Market area of Ottawa. Walking distance (10-15 min) from the Shaw Centre for our conference, and just a few blocks from the Champagne fitness center which has a full-length 25 yard pool. The room was well equipped with microwave, fridge, plates and utensils as well as table/desk, and had a private balcony as well. Service was friendly and helpful, and rooms were cleaned daily unless otherwise requested. Breakfast was included and excellent - eggs, bacon or sausage, egg sandwiches, cereal, fruit, yogurt, potatoes. The only slight negative was the air conditioning which didn't go cool enough for me (the coolest was maybe 71 F?), paired with a duvet instead of sheets/light blanket so it was either heavy blanket or nothing - had difficulty sleeping at night.
