Everything was nice. From the parking garage, up through the elevator and to our apartment. It’s not a hotel, really. It’s like a short-term rental of an apartment for a hotel price. A really good price, IMHO. I can’t pretend that I have a lot of experience staying in places like this and it was my first trip to Montreal, so I don’t really have anything to compare it to. For me, I was happy. The decorations were nice. I actually found the place fancy. It was sparsely decorated, but nicely done. It created a comfortable ambience for my wife and I to enjoy. It was romantic, really. There weren’t bellboys and hotel staff catering to our every need, but that’s okay. We didn’t really need anything. We had a dinner reservation at Le Club Chasse et Pêche in the Old Port and that was our main reason for coming to town. We are from a small village in Vermont and we decided it was high time we treated ourselves to some of the fanciest dining North America can offer, assuming we can drive there in a few hours. NYC is just a bit far, so we settled on this place. Wow! It was very good, but I don’t know enough about food to say more than that. As far as this condo we rented, it took us about 15 minutes to walk to the Old Port. It was so nice to be so close to the restaurant and everything else in the area. We were able to stroll through the Old Port and then, after dinner, we went up through Chinatown and then back east on Ste. Catherine St., through the arts district. Great experience!
