The hotel was old. But maintenance could be improved, some parts of things in room were broken, such as power sockets, curtain racks that needed replacing after too long and old. etc.

The lights were insufficient, no towels or bed sheet were changed ever in 2 days that we were there. Also no staff asked us about room service, housekeeping or cleaning. The only plus point was the location. Other than that everything was poor

Great location, not a super clean room. Sheets and towels were kind of dirty. But it gets the job done. Probably wouldn't go back but didn't have any major problems. Continental breakfast wasn't great. Plenty of places to eat around though so not a huge problem

Location, location, location! We stayed in a "superior" room and enjoyed the character of the hardwood floors and brick walls of this quirky, nicely renovated building - not at all the corporate commercial feel, yet comfortable and clean. Walk out the front door and you are practically in the Place Des Arts, pedestrian only. We parked in the Complex Desjardins, so convenient, and traveled light with just backpacks. This is not at all accessible to those who cannot climb stairs. But for sightseers on a budget we found it very pleasant!

The pillows were absolutely disgusting and we could not stay at this hotel. When I say gross, I mean stained beyond cleaning. Unfortunately Expedia could not help help us recover any money, which was disappointing.

The good, the meh, and the bad

Honestly, after reading some of the scathing reviews about this place (that I read *after* booking), I felt compelled to leave my own! For context, this was a last-minute booking, and I am a solo female French-speaking traveller. The good: the location is excellent, the price was good, and it was cleaner than I expected. I didn't see any bugs, mice, or dirt, at least not in my room ("queen superior"). I didn't spend any time in the common areas, which seemed run-down, but not as filthy as some reviews would indicate. The meh: the bed wasn't comfortable, the breakfast was basically wonder bread and some stale cereal, and the TV doesn't get many channels (if you only speak English, you'll have about 3 channels to choose from). None of these were a big deal for me. The bad: The lock on the door seems really flimsy, and overall the security is questionable. There is one person working the desk, and sometimes guests leave the main door ajar so just anyone could walk in. Pretty sure there are a few people who just straight-up live here. It's a sad vibe, like you're staying in a Darren Aronofsky movie. Overall, you get what you pay for. It's for sure sketchy and I wouldn't hurry to stay here again, but it's not the hellhole that some reviews suggest.
