| - So, I am going to try to review this as fairly as possible, considering that it's not the hotels fault that I was sent here against my will.
To make a long story short, the Hyatt overbooked, and we were bumped and sent to this hotel instead. If you are looking for a hotel that seems like a doomed nightclub, you will be happy, if you are looking for a 4 star hotel, as we were when we booked the Hyatt, you will be quite disappointed.
I understand where they were trying to go with their decor, I really do. I can see how ultra modern can be appealing. I just think that for that look to work, the furnishings need to be really high-end and high quality, this was very IKEA. The overall vibe that this hotel gave off, is of one of those nightclubs that open and close in the same year. It came off as cheesy, and considering the hotel has only been open 3 months, it's plain to see that a lot of their things will not be lasting much longer, at all. For instance, the sliding door in the bedroom is pulling off the wall already, there is no way it will stay on another 3 months.
There is no where to park. You must valet park, which is 23 dollars, plus tip and tax... not crazy for montreal parking, but it's super inconvenient, you need to allow 30 minutes for them to retrieve your car! We waited 30, and the valet boy hadn't even left to get it yet. I would hate to get to my room and realize that I left something in my car.
I don't know what they were thinking with the shower... Again, I know they have this ultra modern theme going on, but I felt like I was taking a shower in a gym stall. The shower was very narrow, with the shower head on the long side of the wall, giving you pretty much no room. I am not sure that a larger person would be able to take a shower in there at all.
There are no king sized beds, in the whole hotel. Probably because they don't fit in the rooms... they are that small.
We upgraded to the best room they had, which did have neat floor to ceiling windows, on the top floor, but the elevator was directly abutting our room, so every time ANYONE used the elevator, even 12 floors below, we heard this loud whirring noise.
Someone randomly walked into our room, while I was changing (luckily I was around the corner, but still).
As for the good, yes, there is some good...
The hotel staff was very accommodating and friendly. They tried to help us the best they could.
There were lots of "extras" in the room, such as wine glasses, plates, and I think a cheese knife. There was a microwave, and a scale, and some other kitcheny type things that were a nice touch.
The TVs were very good quality. Happy to have an iPad charging radio too.
Free wifi.. I've been paying for it, so the free wifi was nice.
To sum it up, there are probably a lot of people who would like this hotel. I'd imagine they would be a bit young (not that I am old, at 27) and maybe be taking a bus or cab. I'd imagine that they would not have to care about a pool or a bar/restaurant or room service.
