I was totally expecting the worse from this place. Booked online and THEN I read the reviews. I was scared. I knew what to expect so I called a day in advance to let them know when I would be arriving, and then called a few hours before I actually arrived to make sure things were good. Check in went perfectly.
This isn't a hotel that is staffed 24/7. So its very important to communicate ahead of arrival.
The hotel is in an awesome location 1/2 a block from a major metro stop. Parking is easy. The place is clean. Not 4 star hotel clean, but I wasn't expecting that either. For $45 a night this place far exceeded my expectations.
Breakfast isn't worth your time, but I did take a few apples, and yogurt.
I've spent many weekends in Montreal - staying mostly in downtown. After staying here I think this will be my go to hotel.
The bathroom was very small, and it would recommend bringing shampoo.
Exactly what I wanted, a place to stay, where I can walk to late a night from being out at the bars and close to the metro to explore during the day.
