comfortable- needs some TLC
We arrived to find our room had been double booked- However, they upgraded us to a larger and better suite( on the second floor- in the back , looking out over the large yard) The hosts were pleasant and the breakfast was very good. The outside seating areas areas are in need of painting upgrade of furniture ,etc- which is too bad as the house sits backoff the road wiith a very large and treed area to enjoy . The interior needs some more attention paid to dusting etc. Though we are asked to take our shoes off upon entering so the floors are very clean

The B&B is easy to find, with ample parking. Instructions for getting in the front door (with a code) emailed ahead of time were fine, but once inside it wasn't clear what we were to do next. We had replied to the original message we received earlier that day which asked us to provide an ETA, and had estimated 7pm. We updated that as we were nearing Ottawa to 7:15pm, and yet there was nobody there to greet us. Neither the Expedia confirmation nor the message from the owner said which room was ours. After looking around trying to figure it out, the host's daughter appeared from a room at the back and showed us to our room. She was friendly and got us into our room but didn't provide much info - and the info she did give wasn't accurate. For example there turned out to be a sink inside the closet, and there were towels in the closet. However there was no soap. She told us that the light outside our window would go out at night, but it didn't. She told us that the air conditioning would come on later in the evening, but it didn't and it was very hot in the room. There was a thermostat on the wall downstairs which I checked, it said 73F, and it was noticeably hotter in the upstairs hallway and hotter still in our room - I estimated at least 76F. Breakfast is always scrambled eggs, with a few tiny pieces of sliced meat - maybe 1oz total. There is no wholewheat bread only white. There is peanut butter and strawberry jam packets, the latter is very old. The coffee was good.

Our wonderful stay at La Villa Rivermead.
We were extremely pleased by our friendly welcome and the warm and pleasant atmosphere. Our room was very large with a very comfortable bed, settee, chair and desk along with a very large clean bathroom. Our hostess was very warm, welcoming and accommodating to our needs. The dining area was well stocked and we were served a delicious breakfast. On return trips to Ottawa we would stay there again and would very highly recommend this place to anyone else.

Disappointed
Very disappointing. Plain breakfast with toast and no butter. Milk for coffee was past due date. Old salad left in room refrigerator. Burnt side light in room. He did not give me code for bedroom door and got locked out with no answer to their bell that would “reach him anytime”. I quite enjoyed my first stay 2 years ago, but the management change since then was for the worse! Won’t be going again!

It look nice on the website, but in fact, it is a old house modified as a B&B, with very poor contractor work. we didn't not even have a closet neither a desk to put how briefcases, in how room, and they was no power outlet available in the bathroom. The parking space was very limited. To exit the B&B in the morning, was very hard, as they is a reserve line for busses and taxis in front of it. The only good point, was the lady that was working they, was very attentive to how need. PS they also refused my Service dog.
