Auberge Alternative

Appreciated the location, decor, people,...

Liked: - Spending Poutine night with the staff and getting to know other travelers- Very convenient location- Easy to ask for more storage space (esp. for cosplays)- Comfy common room- Super convenient checkout
Disliked: - Very rickety beds- Beds lacked bedside chargers; had to charge phone with power bank and put under pillow- Lockers were outside rooms, making it a pain to move items in and out of rooms- Bathrooms' smell was uncomfortable- Upper floor hallways and bathrooms were uncomfortably muggy, and dorm rooms too air conditioned- Dorm room had one drawn curtain and one blaring air conditioner, often dark - The hostel might have better reviews than it warrants because Poutine Night is free for five-star reviewers

Very worth the detour

Liked: Friendly staff, very quiet in the room. Wi-Fi is better on 3rd floor than anywhere else
Disliked: A/C in the room on 3rd floor, next to window but... bed in front of it and all sides covered so cold air not going in the room. And it was way too hot!!!

One of the best if...

Liked: The expérience on itself, one of the best Auberge I have stayed in
Disliked: The a/c unit next to window BUT a bed in front of it so entire room was was too hot, unable to sleep

Exceptional

Liked: Everyone was super friendly and the kitchen was very nice, will deffinately use next time
Disliked: The outside smelled of sewage and the business across the street was blasting cooking smoke right at the entrance. The sewage i mean, it is what it is i guess thats kinda just the location. But the cooking smoke, the hostel should deffinately complain to the neighboring business cuz that is not ok. The spider webs could have been cleaned up a bit inside and the one window that was permanently open needs a screen to prevent bugs from coming in

Exceptional

Liked: Everything was perfect!

Exceptional

Liked: Very reasonable pricing and in old town

A must stay for person/people...

Liked: Best Great Value hostel when on a tight budget. Great location, nearest to the Montreal Convention Centre where I am attending to for Otakuthon. Not many interaction with staff which is great check out no contact needed, but if needed they are still great kind and polite staffs.
Disliked: No provided Breakfast unlike others Hostels. Some beds have no power bar extension sockets or lamp/light shade on the beds on the bunk rooms. (I had to DIY to fix this but still troublesome for other shared guest in the room)Stairs can be a hassle for some. Especially for heavy luggage.

Very good

Liked: Apart from loosing few belongings on my bed side everything was okk and good
Disliked: NA

Superb

Liked: Friendly staff, room very clean, shower area well cleaned
Disliked: Hard to travel from Auberge to downtown via bus. Not Auberge fault though.
