Check in went smoothly. Staff friendly. Place very secure with pass control features. In an ideal location in Montreal. Short walk to main train station. Rooms were basic university residence standard. My room had a sink and towel/facecloth/soap/shampoo was provided. A lot of the facilities are "co-ed". Sound travels well in halls, but was not a problem during my stay. Nothing fancy but very good value for the price. (hotels in area were 3-5x the price).

Everything was great except that there’s no longer a storage room. I had to carry my backpack with me all day, which gave me back pain.

Overall, as a young woman traveling alone, I felt safe at this property and would consider coming back. Pros: separate sink in the room, spacious, lots of storage space, great surrounding area (2 min walk from pharmaprix), helpful staff, good cleaning habits, easy to navigate, communal room (with a microwave, kettle, TV, couch), great security Cons: you have to drag your luggage up a flight of stairs when checking in/out, co-ed communal bathroom regarding toilet and showers, no AC but they do give you a large fan, thin walls (although luckily not unbearable)

Disliked: Amenities
The only issue that I had was with the showers. The showers are shared and I do not have an issue with that because I knew that when I booked the room. The problem for me was that the water temp went from too hot to 3rd degree burns. There were 3 showers in the area of my room that were all the same and when I was leaving I checked another shower in a different area and it was the same too.

Convenience of placement right downtown was nice, room was good also, no a/c but that was known, but brought a few small fans along with me. My only concern was that it was a shared (male/female) bathroom and shower room and a little concerning when I travelled with my teenage daughter. Otherwise, room was clean, staff was very pleasant and overall a great experience. Would do it again☺️

This is my new favorite place to stay in Montreal! What you get is all you need…a bed and a bedroom. I’ve paid 3 times as much and get extra perks at other places, but I’d much rather spend that extra money on fun things in Montreal. I also love the history of the place.

It is a very old building, and it is easy to get lost. But it is safe, the security system is good.

Perfect location for busy people on-the-go! We utilized the space to rest our heads at the end of long days exploring Montreal. Can’t beat the price for location!

Recommend staying for one night on the way to airp

It was clean, safe and neat. The cleaning staff woke me up in the morning when I tried to sleep in. I had to go down the hall to the bathroom and shower in my nightgown past the cleaning staff. It was further from where I wanted to be than I thought.
