HOTEL AUBERGE LE POMEROL

Location and price - its a good choice. Hotel has charm and the front desk staff were very nice. Especially. Hien. She is very patient, kind and explains things very clearly.. you may find more charming, but if you were just needing a place to sleep in order to explore Montreal - this is a good one.

Belle chambre propre et bon service accueil. Les femmes de chambres sont de perles rares.

Je ne fesais qu'une livraison quand on m'a bombarder de questions invraisemblable, la réception devrais changer leur approche

UNSAFE. There is strong odor of gas in the hotel's front stairwell. I reported this to the Front Desk staff and they refused to contact the authorities to investigate. I asked multiple times. I did not feel safe in this building. I checked out immediately and had to find another hotel. Staff first claimed the smell was present off-and-on for years, and claimed they did not smell it. Three of us all smelled the strong gas smell, however. My friends also staying in this hotel checked out. Auberge Le Pomerol refused to refund me. Only AFTER we all checked out and booked other hotels did they decide to contact the utility company to check for a gas leak. I don’t know what resulted with that, but their refusal to check for a gas leak after multiple guests reported the smell of gas in a stairwell is shockingly negligent. Avoid.

My daughter and I spent the weekend here and had a great trip. The location was perfect - walking distance to the winter festival, and a slightly longer walk to other places we wished to go. Parking was around the corner for $12 a night. The room price was much better than others in the area.
The hotel staff were helpful and friendly. We did not have someone come and clean the room and change the towels, but we may have missed something there, like a need to put a tag on the door or something. Either way, we were fine. (Plus we're enviro-friendly.)
The room itself was comfortable, and well-decorated. Honestly, the only issue was that there were little things that needed fixing - a window with a small crack, the gel and shampoo and conditioner dispensers over the bathtub were broken (and while bottles were provided as replacements, there wasn't a bottle of conditioner), a light switch that was broken and wouldn't turn off and required a strip of duct tape to keep it off. Also, warning: the hot water comes out HOT - keep an eye on your bath or it will be scalding.
All the same, I'd stay there again. Highly recommended.
