If you don't want to spend a lot more money just for a hotel, consider Residence Grey Nuns. What it lacks in fancy furniture and fancy lobby is made up in convenience, cleanliness, and a very reasonable price. The staff was very helpful. This hotel is not for everyone, but it is Montreal's BEST bargain for a hotel stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Unfortunately I didn't have a good time here and had to cut my stay short and book elsewhere due to a number of issues. I was very much looking forward to it as well, so it's sad to do this. 1) Mouse in my room, scurried under my bed and I couldn't find it afterwards. Mouse poo along the side of the floor next to my bed as well. 2) Bat flew about 5m from me, indoors in the hallway on the second floor, around 2AM. 3) There was a fire down the street, smoke in my room because no A/C, had to sleep in a mask because the air quality was very poor. I had to rebook a much more expensive place as it was last minute, and I wouldn't have booked if I knew this was going to be the experience.

Don’t stay here

Absolutely disgusting. Rodents, showers don’t work properly. This place should be shut down by city officials. Staff is rude and militant. Area is unsafe. Homeless people everywhere

Great stay, great location.

Great location, nice room. No air-conditioning but with a cold shower and open the window with the fan it was fine. Bring earplugs.

no cold water for the sink, The cold tap was very hot. The room was very extremely hot and unbearable to sleep due to the heat. The fan didn't help much because of it. Very noisy, someone or group of people keep slamming doors every 20 mins in the night wich made it hard to sleep. Maybe upgrading the rooms with air conditioning with the raise of price for the room might make it better.

It is a great location at a reasonable price but it is an old building. No air conditioning but a BIG fan was provided which helped but was noisy. I would stay again but this is not like a hotel. That’s why the price is low.

The mattress was very, very old and hollowed out so it feels like you are lying on a hard frame It smelled like body odour. It was very uncomfortable and I hardly slept. The place was noisy with banging noises in the corridors. It is basic and I knew that but the bed shouldn't smell.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff very friendly and welcoming. Easy check-ins and check outs. Always secured by security at the entrance. Great location, 3-min walk from Metro Guy-Concordia makes for easy travel around the city. Plenty of food options. The facility itself leaves a lot to be desired. The upper floors are extremely hot and humid, requiring a fan to be blasting and the windows open 24/7. With the windows open at night, it gets very noisy and difficult to sleep. The showers are terrible. They take about 10 minutes to cool down from being boiling hot and the water pressure isn't great. Locking the room door was difficult, there is a trick to it which I wasn't aware of until my 2nd day. There are cameras everywhere though.
