upon entering our sleeping quarters at Travelodge I couldn't stop the sinking sensation that slowly spread throughout my body. The room was habitable, yet barely so. Had we been paying a nominal fee normally associated with a low-end budget hostel in Nicaragua I would have been ecstatic, yet here we were in Montreal, and due to lack of available inventory we were essentially relegated to paying $130/ night for a room with rickety wrought iron bunk beds, a grainy 11 inch TV perched at a neck straining level in the far corner of the room and an indeterminate stench that permeated throughout.
To be fair I should mention that a continental breakfast and WiFi were included in the rate, yet the WiFi was unreliable and at breakfast we were forced to forage for the few remaining scraps of fruit and other miscellaneous breakfast items deemed unpalatable by previous hotel guests. A good ole hangover breakfast it was not!
On a more positive note-the staff were incredibly friendly and did try and do their best to offer directions, tips on the city... However you should avoid staying here unless it is absolutely necessary.
