Hôtel Brossard
We had a pleasant stay. There was a bad smell in the bathroom when we arrived but it dissipated overnight. We usually stay here when we visit Montreal and the only issue we have is with the bathroom sinks. They are small and the limited space between the tap and the sink makes them hard to use.

Motel La Siesta
Very friendly staff. The room was fixed up every day- and always stocked up with tissue, toilet paper, etc. The only recommendation I have is to have extra blankets in the room. But other than that, it did it’s job and it was good enough for me.
