Lac Grothé

The good: lots of space to stretch out, huge balcony, full kitchen, location is fantastic and right next to lots of restaurants and the art museum, easy parking right across the street and way cheaper than most hotel parking in the city (plus free car charging if you bring your own cord). Right next to a great coffee shop. The bad: the lobby smells like a teenager who spilled cologne on themselves (it's bad, it's just so bad, and we would hold our breath as we ran from the entrance to the elevator, awful terrible smell), the street is SO LOUD at night that it was very difficult to sleep, the furniture is very tired, the beds were incredibly uncomfortable, the sheets like scratchy thin pieces of paper, the towels felt like sandpaper. The carpet in the hallway is very, very cheap and old and stained. The blinds were torn from age. I could really only recommend the hotel if you absolutely need two bedrooms. It's a cool looking apartment, and if they did nothing but replace the cheap mattresses, the awful sheets and towels, and hung up more than 2 paintings in the entire place, it could actually be pretty nice. It wouldn't take much to bump this place up and make it better, but they'd also really need to address the noise somehow.

great location walking distance from le vieux port de Montreal. Easy check in and parking nearby alternatives provided by the property prior to our arrival so it was stress free.
