Really excellent budget option. My room was small but clean, comfortable, and functional. Great location near McGill. Maybe the only downside was that they don't have a lot of people working the desk, but that wasn't an issue for me.

Great location, clean, quiet and safe
A great location, quiet, clean and safe for walking. It's a simple place but exactly what I need. It would have been nice to have a coffee machine in the room, but the coffee downstairs in the cafe was excellent.
This is a good location for access to downtown, Mont Royal and other neighbourhoods. I walked everywhere - Old Montreal, the port, Rue St. Denis.
I only wish that there were no people smoking as you walk down the streets.

Nice older 3 storey walk up near Mount Royal. A bit hostel-like and very self-serve. Nice room with pretty windows onto the street. Nice little cafe on the main floor opens at 8:00 am. I would have liked access to a kettle and cups to make coffee or tea in our room earlier.

Nice atmosphere. Close from everything. Students run the facility. Rooms and furniture are outdated but serve the purpose. Overall, you get what you paid for and it was best price in this area.

Ambrose Hotel was great for location to city centre. Walkable to all main attractions around. Close to Metro and shopping and restaurants. The cafe was convenient for morning coffee and bite to eat. Room was spacious and had character. Small fridge in the room would be a helpful addition. Otherwise great comfortable stay in Montreal.

The room was spotless and quiet. The staff at the entrance were friendly and helpful.
A set of clean towels after 3 days would have been appreciated.
A written set of instructions for the tele set up would have been appreciated
