It’s two old homes that have been combined and converted to bedrooms. It’s a little funky, but in a good way. Very conveniently located on a quiet street with good access to McGill U, Mont Royal Park, and shops/restaurants. The receptionists/baristas are very friendly.

The room was clean. The building's very old and can use some updating. No elevator very steep steps to get to your room fortunately staff helps. Plenty of shops nearby. You can pay for one of the two parking spaces on site.

Located in an old building with some charm, large room and quiet. Be prepared for the winding stairway up if you are on the 3rd floor. No early check in allowed, strictly 3pm. Nice to have the cafe downstairs with the morning smell of cinnamon rolls! Located downtown but there are plenty of restaurants and cafes around.

Room was much smaller than in the pictures and the shower door didn’t close properly so water leaked onto the floor every time it was used. The room was on the ground floor and the windows didn’t have screens which felt a little unsafe. The cafe workers were absolutely lovely and the location was great.

I was hoping for a boutique hotel but instead it is very run down and drab. Not like what the photos suggest. Desperately needs a paint job and new carpet in the halls and stairway. Could be great if they put some effort into it. Bed was however comfortable and the bathroom was at least updated. Location is excellent. Price point is steep for its condition.

This was not as advertised, Images online do not match the property. Room was dirty, bath was dirty, chair was stained and windows filthy. Dirty scratched walls, filthy. The overall property was in disrepair and disgusting at all levels. Also, a paid car port was in a secured alley and filthy. This is actually one of the worst hotels I’ve seen in over 40 years.
