Disappointing experience

Definitely not a great place. Cleanliness was not great, dirty and dusty floors, hair in the sink, the trays were soaps and shampoo were displayed were full of toothpaste stains. The worse was the water pressure. I asked about it and they sent a gentleman that scraped calcium deposits from the sink spout which fixed the issue there but could not fix the pressure in the shower. There was barely enough water coming out of the shower head to get wet. He just gave me towels and left. They didn’t offer any solution like switching rooms or anything. The only upside of the place is the location.

Really cute and unique property. Very, very comfortable and huge bed. The only thing I would suggest is that they upgrade their coffee in the breakfast room. Not a big deal as there are many EXCELLENT coffee shops very close by, but sometimes you just want to grab a quick one in the lobby!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a great stay here. The room had a quirky charm and was huge! Every staff member I encountered was pleasant and helpful. The location is superb for all things Downtown Montreal. The only negative depends on how light of a sleeper you are. It's the city so traffic and reveler noise can be problematic. My friends were sharing rooms next door at Mount Stephan but i got a solo suite at the Chez Swann for the same price. #winning The bar at the Mount Stephan is s hot spot so if you have a street-facing room on the 2nd floor, expect noise.

I had a great stay at this hotel! The location is excellent, making it easy to get around and explore the area. The room was very spacious and comfortable, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with anything I needed. The service overall was top-notch. However, there were a couple of downsides. Parking was a bit of a hassle and very expensive, and the water pressure in the shower was quite low, which was a bit disappointing as we booked this room for its huge double shower. Despite these issues, I would still recommend this hotel for its great location, excellent service, and comfortable rooms!

I really like this little hotel; I stay here frequently. The rooms are spacious and decor is very cool. The only thing that may make me change in future is the noise. it's close to the street so if you are a light sleeper - bring ear plugs or white noise!
