Cartier Place Suite Hotel
Everything was great in the room except the pull out couch bed was in rough shape . We could feel the springs through it. The only other thing was the sauna had ants at the door.

Les Suites Hotel Ottawa
Room was nice, bed was a bit hard compared to our last stay. The alarm going off wasn't as pleasant but we will definitely stay again.
