La Villa Rivermead

This is looks like family run hotel. Room was clean and had everything you need.

Hostess was very accommodating. Street was very noisy. Weather was humid so needed an open window.

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.

Little far away , but everything great to stay !

The room was charming and comfortable. Breakfast was great and kept us going most of the day. And the staff person we met was wonderful.

The breakfast was lovely and the staff were professional and friendly

Breakfast is awesome Love the house it’s clean and beautiful close to downtown but you have to drive or bus

We like this old Victorians inn. Walking distance to everywhere in downtown.

Super clean; very considerable host; quite scenic route and stylish house/room. Recommended!
