OK - as everyone here says, don't stay here in the summer. If you do, like I did, try sleeping in a wet t-shirt and unplug the fridge, as it makes the room even hotter. There is no AC - there is a ceiling fan, but it really doesn't do anything much. The proudly declared "personal shower mat" is hysterical.... More

I reserved a room to accommodate 3 adults. I have stayed in hostels before, but at least I could sleep at night. I knew that it was going to be a no-frills place, but I did not expect it to be so terribly hot. The staff was considerate, however that did not make up for the unbearable temperatures inside the...

Stayed for 2 nights during the Juste Pour Rire Festival as group of 6. Initially I had booked an entire Multi 3 Apartment (through their website, which is not very efficient for booking entire apartments- you have to book each room individually under one name), but there was a mix up of only 2 rooms being together! After some transferred... More

While I am not usually very picky, thought I would share my experience here for those who are. Room was very basic - one double bed, a desk, chair, ceiling fan, small bar-fridge and two hotplates. Bathroom was all the more simple and tiny - the sink was not even large enough to wash one's face, which resulted in a... More

Stayed there 4 nights for the jazz festival around 4th of July. Nothing can beat this location - it's literally walking distance to everything including st cathrene's street, mount royal, old port, Latin quarters and everything else Montreal has to offer. Not to mention that it is right in the middle of jazz festival setting! The room is nothing fancy... More

The room is very basic. Positives: spacious even for a studio, clean, bright, quiet, free internet, well priced, centrally located and very near to the metro (subway), and I like the hard bed they have. Negatives: there is no ac - there is a ceiling fan and you can borrow a fan from the reception. Book here when the students... More

Good location, just 1 block north of Place Des Arts metro station and easy walk to Rue St. Catherine.

Our room was simple, and un-airconditioned as advertised. I wouldn't stay in August, but in June the overhead fan was enough to sleep by. Lots of traffic on the main street side we were on - ask to stay on the side facing the alley if you can. Staff was busy, but friendly enough. Definitely a good value. Convenient to... More

We choose the place for the location & were happy enough with the room. A fridge, sink, your own bathroom, & the windows keep all the noise out. I lived in dorm rooms for 3 years & these were definitely better than the ones that I had. The place is clean, but oddly enough, I ran into a familiar problem.... More
