Our room was very clean and comfortable. Also liked the size of our room. Free parking on the streets was possible because we were there for a weekend. It was a bit of work to have to pre-register for check in online, but once it’s done, everything else was super easy, and I liked how you don’t need a key card to enter the room.

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It’s clear that this is one of the exceptional Sonders. Nicely appointed with what is needed when traveling. You’re close to everything you need and Ottawa, and you have your own mini apartment. It’s a few minutes walk to go pick up some food so you can really enjoy the comfort of your own unit or you can head out to get restaurant food depending on your interests. The access/check/in to our room was easy and all of the things that we needed were there. I prefer these types of arrangements vs full-on hotel stay. Highly recommend!

Beautiful place for an excellent price. I will stay at other Sonder location. It was little too cold in the room and it seems like we didn't have a control over the thermostat but we had an excellent stay.
