M Montreal is Great!
M Montreal is in a great location close to tons of things and it’s a great price. The staff is always friendly/helpful and the private room was fantastic. King bed was super comfy the wifi was great. I will definitely stay there again, next time I’m in Montreal.

The Good: For the hostel, service was definitely feeling like a typical 3- to 4-star hotel stay with vibrant and clean facilities as well as awesome, well-informed staff on trends and events in the area and meeting new guests you bunk with in the hostel. Definitely a big 5/5 up for the cleanliness of personal linens. Remember travellers! Unless you are booking private rooms (which cost more), you as a hostel guest are responsible for returning your own linens and towels at the reception as an additional (refundable) deposit charge will be made on your credit card on check-in! You as a hostel guest are responsible for exchanging dirty towel or linens for clean ones at the front desk. The "could improve" points: The cleanliness and property is generally well maintained, and every effort was made by staff to maintain cleanliness and staff was pleasant enough to exchange my bath towels daily. But some things, espeically the shared resources such as the washroom towellette in the room near the shower was a bit soiled (hasn't been changed in few days), and in the cafe some cushion seats and decorations appeared worn or ripped. The bad (not fault of hostel, but still 4/5): The neighbourhood at the M is in the Gay Village and a vibrant community with events almost every week! However, there are a few undesirables wandering about but generally won't bother you, but please do not leave anything unattended such as bicycles or other things unsecured outside the property!

First stay in a hostel style lodging and it was superb. Quiet, clean, beautifully appointed bunks. Hosts were lovely. Many breakfast choices at affordable prices- I had the best Americano here! Lots to do if you so choose. Would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat. Excellent location right near Ste. Catherine and all it offers.

Exceeded expectations
The M exceeded my expectations, especially on my first time doing a dorm-style hostel accommodation. The rooftop patio with hammocks was a dream. The comedy act in the basement bar was fun. The bunks were private and comfortable.

This was the cleanest hostel room I've ever stayed at. I slept in a six bed room, which included one bathroom with a shower as well as a desk. Everything was functional. Each bed had curtains, a cubby, power plugs that worked, lockers, a light, even a rack to hang clothes. The bunk beds were nice and didn't creak. There are additional showers on each floor but I couldn't find additional toilets which is unfortunate. It is a big hostel and as such it's not quite as easy to meet new people as other hostels. I appreciate they have some day activities to help with that. The bar downstairs is a nice space, and it is the place that I would run into people. The rooftop jacuzzi was neat. We couldn't totally figure out how it worked but it was functional. Nice way to relax after a lot of walking. In addition, there is a large kitchen and dining area, an area that seems to be catered towards people who want to work on a laptop, and at the end of the lobby is another mini-kitchen with a place that sells breakfast, and seating area. Overall I liked my time in this hostel as a home base for exploring Montreal!

You might as well pay for a single hotel room or Airbnb room in a shared house for this price. The cleanliness, beds, and bathrooms were all of fair quality, but not worth $150/night including all fees. The desk staff were extremely un-accommodating when an issue with my credit card arose. Instead of waiting a couple of days for the issue to be resolved, or taking cash or debit as a security deposit, they made me buy a pre-paid visa for an additional $6. For this price, save yourself the trouble and stay somewhere with customer service.

Hello Erin,It is well mentioned when booking online that a valid credit card will be required in order to hold a security deposit. It is your responsibility to be aware of the information related to your stay. In the case you cannot provide a valid credit card, indeed, we exceptionally accept pre-paid credit cards to help our guests to keep their reservations. We are sorry that our flexibility was not appreciated. Regards,
