Bright + clean 2-bedroom home in Gatineau, QC

Good value for money.

You get what you pay for, and in this case, a dated but functional home that disappointed Positive: The size of the house was fine for us. The kitchen appliances worked and were all we required. The bed was comfortable and the towels and linens were nice. The place was quiet on the weekends. We liked having our dog there. The parking was conveniently located next to the front door. Negative: While the house seemed clean, it was worn and very dated, with mismatched, highly used furniture, so in essence, we did not feel like it was clean. Every ceiling light fixture had only one or two working bulbs, including the bathroom and kitchen, and that made for a feeling of gloom. The lighting there was, appeared harsh and yellow, except for the bedroom because it had bedside lamps. We did not use the living room as a result. The air was musty when we arrived so we had to open windows to air it out, and the porch was unswept so we tracked in dirt until my husband had a chance to sweep it. I blame myself for not having done enough research about the area before booking, but we did not find it particularly close to anything we wanted to do. The neighborhood was mixed industrial and residential with some unkempt homes and trash on the streets. While the price was decent, this was certainly not an area I would choose again for a vacation. It was certainly not a property I would expect to see on booking.com. We made the most of our trip and just took it as a lesson learned.

Positive: Super petite maison très agréable, côté Québec et à 2 pas d'Ottawa. Supermarché juste en face, super pratique. On s'est senti comme à la maison et c'était très agréable !

Comme à la maison Positive: Emplacement parfait, 15 minutes d'Ottawa, tout près de restaurants et Maxi pour faire les courses. Cuisine toute équipée, beau jardin accessible, hôte disponible

Séjour apaisant et possibilité d’y retourner Positive: Endroit propre et calme
