| - I went up to Montreal to ring in the new year and had a really nice time at this hotel. It was easy find and the parking was great. I just parked in the ally behind the hotel and then gave them the key. They must have moved it a few times while I was staying there, but there weren't any scratches or anything. Also, they said I could use the car at any time day or night and that there was always someone at the front desk. I never needed the car though since the hotel was across the street from the Sherbrooke station which made it easy to get anywhere I wanted to go.
The room was definitely big enough. It had most of the standard hotel stuff: comfy and clean bed, love seat, flat screen TV, etc. However, they let you borrow stuff that they don't keep every room equipped with such as wine glasses, ice buckets, etc. I went out to eat pretty much every meal so I never got a chance to test this service. It was pretty hot in the room and there was a sign that said "thank you for not turning the temperature below 20c or 72f" which I thought was a bit strange, especially coupled with the fact the thermostat only had 1-5 as temperature markers, but I just cracked a window at night. It was a simple enough fix. :)
The whirlpool bathtub was nice. I'm not sure I'd pay extra for it again, but I enjoyed a few relaxing baths in the evening before bed.
Breakfast was quite enjoyable. There were a few pastries to pick from, but the bagels were the way to go. I really enjoyed their sesame bagels, endless coffee, orange juice and fruit. They even had some black tea!
Overall it was really enjoyable and if I go back to that part of town I'd definitely stay there again!
