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!

For the price and location you can’t complain. It’s clean, comfortable, and accessible. No frills. But, hey. It’s a good stay. And a gorgeous building.

College dorm
This is a very basic college dorm. A large room with sink and comfortable bed but no frills.

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.

An old (very old) convent residence now operated by a public university. No AC or TV few amenities, mini soap bar, tube of shampoo and bar fridge towel were it. Paid extra for grungy private bathroom with broken light and mirror. Only $100 less than something good.

During the summer, the water only had one temperature setting, which was the maximum heat. Use of the showers and sinks was uncomfortable as a result.

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.

We loved your staff, all of them. We received special attention from Shane and Megan. Everyone was so nice! The room and the bathroom were very clean and very pleasant. Thank you for the nice fan. It was very much appreciated. It would have been nice to have been able to open the window, but we could not find any assistance for that.
