I recently stayed at Glo Best Western Kanata Ottawa West, and my experience was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean and nicely decorated, but I faced some issues with service. While the location was convenient for accessing the highway, it was somewhat isolated for dining options. Overall, it was decent but not without its challenges.
