Train Station Hotel

Location is the biggest selling point of this hotel. It is SUPER convenient to the train station ... ~3 minute walk, so no matter what time of day you arrive, you can easily get there without having to worry about transportation. You can also store your luggage there after checkout, so if you aren't leaving the city immediately, you can go exploring and know your luggage is safe. The staff were very friendly and helpful to someone who doesn't speak French. The room itself was quiet but very basic. The bathroom ceiling had old water stains everywhere, the shower stall was very small and the tile grout was dirty. It was the kind of place you don't want to walk around barefoot. For me, the convenience outweighed the lack of amenities.

I was quick off the train. This hotel very convenient and filled my immediate need perfectly. It’s the central train station area so nighttime has characters roaming about the neighborhood. The hotel is very established and secure. I would stay again based on its local convenience to everything.

The room was accommodating. I liked how close it was to the train station and it is a very easy 10 min walk to the port. downside to the room was that the bathroom smelled like smoke from the outside, almost like the window wasn't closed, but I could not adjust it. It is a bit loud, but with a white noise app I slept well. The staff was excellent and went out of their way to help us get information about the city.

Helpful staff at a convenient location and price

Staff were very friendly and helpful providing a map of where to go to eat and spoke both French and English. Room and bathroom had been recently refurbished. My only gripe was that I could not get the shower to run warm and the kettle didn't work. Managed t5o open window so I was able to stand on narrow balcony,

While this was very close to the Saint Charles train station, and the staff at the front desk was lovely, that's about all the goodness we can put into this review. The halls and rooms smelled like the inside of a barn--you know, hay and animal manure. There was only one outlet & one usb in a lamp. This is the 21st century--upgrade! There were no blankets (& I was ridiculed for asking for one) & the breakfast was...meh at best. We wouldn't return.
