The location is close to everything, the airport shuttle stop out front, good access to public transportation. But the area has really gone downhill, there are a ton of people on drugs and homeless people in the immediate area.
It seemed to be clean enough, but it smelled terrible and there weren't any windows that opened to air it out. I think they had just shampooed the carpets, which is great for things to be clean, but the chemical smell was very strong, to the point I had a sore throat. I asked for another room, but they were full and could not accommodate it, they told me to enquire the following day.
I know Montreal well, knew the area, so for the price, I'm fine with it. I just wouldn't recommend it to anyone for a holiday.
