Great location, walkable to almost all attractions in Ottawa. Lots of amenities like kitchen, fridge, cookware, Roku, storage lockers, and game tables. The parking could be better. Check in time is 4pm, could be earlier. Wall has a visible bubble from a water leak. Lobby has a strong scent as if it's trying to cover something up. Overall a pleasant experience. Would consider staying again.

It was all wonderful and we would plan on staying here again if we were to return to Ottawa. Or any other city that has this chain. Bonus points for a full size coffee maker! The kitchen was very handy to have. Loved the use of the luggage lockers after check out, and the amazing friendly and knowledgeable staff. Although I didn't inquire, I didn't see if we could enter the building before our check-in time to store our luggage, but will ask, if needed, next time. Check on your location, if downtown, expect normal heavy traffic noise. It didn't bother us but it may bother others. Room was pretty quiet but any room can only control so much outside noise. We couldn't hear our neighbors so the building is pretty quiet. For the kitchen, you will need to bring your own food condiments otherwise it's very stocked to cook, eat and drink. Overall as the stars that I gave indicate, it was fantastic all around.

Nice little hotel option. Great location .Cute kitchenette. Too few outlets and weird configuration probably because it's a modernized building. Otherwise it was clean and comfortable.

Recommending this place; please read for details
Location was great for my work which was in downtown Ottawa. The room/studio with the full kitchen was excellent. The only thing perhaps was that the washroom was small and one needed to run the shower for a minute or two for the water temperature to stabilize. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Overall, it’s OK. I like the spacious room. I would’ve given higher stars. But my light broke down, the tub has weird stains, a really dirty teapot. And it’s a lot of weird sounds going on in the room during the night. But the area is quiet though. It’s good for family stay not if you’re trying to get some luxury out of it. I think the overall price is a little bit on the high end for what it provides.

They want you to upload all your personal info online before arrival and told me that it was not possible to do a manual check in at the reception. I did not like this at all and they only offered to refund. They could not transfer me to any manager and had no platform for complaints. So I would not recommend this place to people who are worried about data protection. It was also very loud in the corridors when other rooms were being cleaned (constant noise of doors banging).

Property was modern and suite had everything we needed and we were surprised our studio apartment had a dishwasher. Loved the lounge areas in the building and the gym . We also walked everywhere we went to as restaurants and major tourist attractions were close by. Cleaning provided was daily which was a big plus. Overall a great experience and I will be using sonders in other cities when I travel.
