Super 8 Ottawa

The outside didn’t look like much, but inside was really nice. Our room was so clean that we checked the bed, too, and found it clean with no bugs. The bed was comfortable, and I’m impressed. We usually choose more upgraded hotels and motels, but this visit was wonderful. We come to see a family member every month, and this is where we’ll stay from now on. 😁

The room and lobby were very clean and smelled amazing. The front desk staff were friendly, and check-in went smoothly. I didn’t use the pool, though it looked nice. Breakfast was good, but could’ve used some protein options. The pillows were too soft for me, but that’s personal preference.

We were on the road at 5 a.m., so we skipped breakfast. I’m not sure whether it was a hot buffet or just things like cereal and danish. The hotel is close to the interstate, yet quiet, and the bed and bedding were very comfortable, which matters most to us.

Our family found the stay stressful and anxiety-filled. Housekeeping kept trying to push into the room even after I told them several times we’d arrived after midnight and didn’t need anything. Whenever I left, I felt watched, and someone would come stand outside the room. There was blood on a towel when I went to shower, and the shower squealed. When I told the owner or whoever he was, he just looked at my husband and said nothing. The room temperature was uncomfortable because air came through the windows while the heater stayed on constantly. Turning it off made the room cold, but leaving it on made us sweat. The TV remote didn’t work, so we had to use the button on the TV itself to turn it on and off.
