Never really wanting to stay in a city this B&B had a lovely welcoming feel and great facilities. We walked into and back to the main centre and loved the markets. Our room overooked the back garden and we loved seeing the squirrels flit along the tree branches. Our host did offer us bus tickets but we love to walk.... More

My fiancé and I stay for two nights in October and loved it! Breakfast was served with the elegance of an evening meal, complete with candles! The bed was wonderfully comfortable and the linens were so lovely that we found the label and then went looking for them in the shops. It's a short walk to all of the tourist... More

A study full of books for reading. Bath robes to wear when using the bathroom. Tea served from a variety of china teapots and china... More

We had never stayed at a B&B before, but because Shirley Samantha's had great reviews in TripAdvisor, we decided to stay there rather than renting an apartment. However great reviews the other travelers had already submitted to TripAdvisor, it is better still! Cynthia and... More

My husband and I recently stayed here on our vacation in Ottawa. The hosts, Cynthia & Paul, are very friendly and welcoming, and have a very lovely home. We stayed in the Crab Apple Room, and while the room does not have an ensuite, there is a private bathroom just a couple of steps across the hall. They even supply... More

I have been travelling a lot these years and stayed in many places, but Shirley Samantha's B&B is one of the best experiences I have ever had! Location is good, it's not in the city centre but there is a bus stop nearby that takes you to the centre in 10mins. There is also a supermarket just nearby (in case... More

this B&B was wonderful, the hosts as nice and helpful as could be, and the breakfasts plentiful and delicious. The room was lovely and comfortable.
