Liked: Cleanliness
We stayed in a superior room for three nights. While the rooms are not super big, the double bed was clean & comfortable. The room furniture looked tired and getting worn. They failed to clean the room one day. The front desk clerks were friendly and courteous. The location is good for a nice walk in the Olympic park grounds.

This hotel was comfortable enough for a quick stay, but the building is very tired. Lots of small things in our room were broken or not working. The hotel hosted an event the same evening we stayed and we could not even park on property. We love visiting Montreal, but we’ll likely stay elsewhere in the future. This hotel has potential if the owners ever choose to reinvest in themselves at some point.
