We found this hotel, last minute, for a quick overnight in Montreal and had no choice but to book as almost all hotels were booked solid for the August long weekend. As there was only one room left for our family of 4, we had to opt for a 'smoking' room. The check in was very professional, easy and quick and they made us feel very welcome. The room was nice and clean but had a very, very thick aroma of old, stale cigarettes. Unfortunately, we couldn't do anything about transferring to another room, so when we went out for dinner later, I picked up some air freshener from a local supermarket and that helped. The hotel is out in a very residential area but was very quiet indeed. There were many different options for dinner within walking distance and/or a short drive. The front desk staff were extremely helpful in our decision making for dinner.
The beds were some of the most comfortable hotel beds I've ever slept in...and the small sitting area was a nice little place to chill before dinner.
The morning's complimentary breakfast had many nice offerings, including hot, poached eggs, ham and english muffins, a variety of muffins, breads, cereals, fruit and yogurt. They even had a Belgium waffle making station...fantastic. The only really big problem, is that they kept running out of hot items. We got there just before a huge rush and although we were happy with what we got, many people started to get impatient. The one woman who was trying to keep everything filled was obviously running ragged and the people were giving her a very hard time. All in all though, the breakfast is very good, albiet unorganized but the only problem were how nasty the patrons of the hotel were acting...shameful!
I would stay in this hotel again, if I was through Laval in the future.
