Do you know Ottawa?

There's a chance I'm gonna go to Ottawa this weekend for a Haiti event. What is there in the way of reasonably inexpensive places to stay near the University [Edit: of Ottawa]?

We really, really liked the B&B on Somerset. I can't be certain of the name, but it may be "The Inn on Somerset". the_nita and others stayed there with J & I for a wedding back several years ago, wonderful gay couple running the place, incredible food. Not *cheap*, as such, but not ruinous either. Now I think about it, Tickly Girl and I have stayed there too.

I also rely on the Inn on Somerset for queer-friendly accomodations, if I'm in Ottawa on business. Lots of antiques, slightly cheaper than a hotel, no TVs in the room, shared bathrooms in some cases (but a robe is provided).

However it is a healthy walk from that Inn on Somerset West to UOttawa on Somerset East. (There is no bridge across the canal at Somerset.) Ottawa winter weather being what it is, you might take the bus (running again now) or find somewhere else to stay.
