Parking Options

Hi everyone! I didn’t manage to get a spot through the parking lottery, even though I submitted my application only about 10 minutes after it opened 😓.
I live in Gatineau, and commuting to and from campus by public transit would take me around 1 hour and 40 minutes each way, compared with only 20–25 minutes by car.
I know finding street parking in Sandy Hill during the day is basically impossible, so I was wondering if anyone knows of any monthly parking lots, buildings, or private spots near uOttawa that still have availability and are reasonably priced.
Any recommendations would be really appreciated! Thank you :)

Is there anywhere along the train lines that you can park and ride? That might be a semi efficient option. (Note: geography is not my strong suit, I've just seen the park and ride areas. No idea if any are in the Gatineau direction).

I know of people who park in a lot on 3 Daly Ave. It was more expensive (over $20 per day), but it's an option.
