    I worked and lived in a hostel for 36 months, I understand how important customer service is. This was not my first stay. Because of a few health related issues, Sabina and Laura both were very accommodating and made this long weekend...

    The staff at this hostel is exceptional. Ever since I arrived here, I have always been welcomed with a smile. I loved the mattress in the room — it was very comfortable and high. I also appreciated the private space where you can work...

    Good budget hostel - cheapest private room I could find in old Montreal - only really used it to sleep after I went out for the night - very dark and good at blocking out sound. All the staff were very friendly
