Enjoyed the history and uniqueness of the place. Was a bit cold at night so you need to be prepared in the winter months. Will come again.

Cool place to stay while in Ottawa. Some of the individual rooms appear to be cells that have been split in two, and not the original size of the cells. I stayed in one of these, which are quite small.
