| - Hot, hot, hot! This is how I would describe our trip to Montreal during the heatwave of '10. And the Hotel Le St-Andre was a bit warm, too. It took a while for our room to cool down in over ninety degree heat. However, I think this is pretty unusual for Montreal so I have to cut them some slack.
I found this hotel randomly on kayak.com and my perception of the hotel is pretty much summed up in the other review on yelp. The front desk people are extremely friendly. They actually bring you a breakfast of croissants, baguettes, tea, coffee, and fruit juices right to your door in the morning; how lovely! And they speak English, so I don't have to say "Je ne parle pas Francais" and look like a fool.
The free parking is great but yes, a little sketchy. There was a bum sleeping outside of the building right next to our hotel, but I felt safe with my husband. However, I did like "The Village" area just down the street!
For the price, $191 for two nights (this includes taxes) was not bad. This includes free parking, free breakfast, and free wi-fi. Go to Montreal, even if you are not rich and enjoy the Hotel Le St-Andre.
