This is a "fine" hotel for the money. It is in a great location. About a 5 minute walk to the "gay district" which is a walking only area of 5-6 blocks long and has a ton of food and drink options. St. Catherine St is 10 minutes walk. Even Old Port is walkable (20 minutes). The owners are awesome. Helpful, friendly. That said, it is an old hotel. It feels like an old hotel. There is no AC in the rooms. They control it and when you are on the 3rd floor...it is HOT when it is hot outside. We had trouble sleeping. It was probably 85 in our room. Maybe warmer. If that isn't for you, you don't want to stay here. The hotel was clean, the sheets were clean, the bathroom was fine. I would stay here again, but only in the Spring/Fall. Wouldn't do Summer again because of the heat, and Winter would worry me because of the cold.
