Great value for money, centrally located and easy walking distance to restaurants, shopping, the old town and Mount Royal. But be prepared for a serious dose of college dorm nostalgia.

Worst stay of my life. The room smelled like a mix of mildew and burnt popcorn. The bed was harder than concrete, and the sheets had stains. The pictures online were a complete lie. Never coming back!. Absolutely disgusting. The bathroom looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years, the water barely ran, and there were bugs everywhere. Expedia needs to remove this listing immediately.If you value sleep, hygiene, or your money, avoid this place at all costs. The heater didn’t work, and the staff acted like they didn’t care. I want a full refund. False advertising. This is not a cozy student accommodation—it’s a nightmare. Never again.

First of all it's an historical building. I love minimalism - and I also like being frugal. So this met my criteria. And you are right downtown by St Catherine St. I wanted to rebook - but it seems they only allow visitor booking in the summer time.

The location and quiet, beautiful grounds were amazing and felt very safe. The room itself was clean and adequate, not really anything you could call comfortable but very serviceable with a fine bed and ensuite bathroom, The front desk staff were lovely and extremely helpful, as were security staff who seemed to do frequent walkarounds of the rambling building.

Typical dorm room

This is basic accommodation in a spacious dorm room. You have a sink and fridge and a fan. No AC. There are stairs at the entrance. It was clean and quiet.

Felt like the security could be compromised be the lack of security presence around the massive building. The lodgings are in many different wings of the building. There’s a security desk at the entrance but considering the open nature of the washroom and lounges I’d think there might be a patrol every once a while for security reasons. Never seen a security guard other than the front desk, which is isolated from the rooms themselves.

Will Always Stay Here in the Summer

I love it here. Stayed twice...once by myself and once with my wife. If you want a basic hotel (college dorm during the school year), this is it.

A dorm...and perfect!

We my wife and I LOVED it here! Highly recommended. This is a college dorm during the school year, and open to rent a room in the Summer. Think "dorm room" and you get the idea. But, it was perfect. Loved the whole experience...no extras that you don't want pay for anyway. And, on the same block and a parking garage that has the cheapest indoor parking that I know of in Montreal...$12 to park overnight. And, they have EV chargers if you have an EV. Also, on the next block is the metro station, along with some places to go to dinner or drinks. It really is a wonderful place for a basic stay. It's "nothing special," but, that's part of it's charm.

Our stay was quite good, the room was great for what we needed it for. We did have to checkout early and the staff were excellent at accommodating this request. We were helped by Megan and she was very helpful and made sure everything worked out for us. Overall, the stay was good for OSHEAGA and I would recommend it as somewhere central and close to the metro. One downside that they inform you of before you book is that there was no ac but the included fan in the room works great for cooling the room down at night.
