This place has everything. Awesome dining area/work area, lockers in room, kitchen area, bar with service. The location was ideal, close to subway. I will definitely use this place whenever travelling solo. Any other place is way over priced for a single traveller.

Very clean, nice room with my own little fridge. The bed was comfortable. Good breakfast, nice service. Excellent location. Many grocery stores near the hostel and the subway station isnt far as well. I got everything I needed at my room, just had to bring myself :) Maybe add a little night light next to the bed next time, then it would be perfect.

It was good for the most part. The room was clean and the beds are comfortable enough, and they have curtains for privacy (I slept in a 4 bed mixed dorm). The staff was quite friendly, especially the girl that was there in the morning, and there was a decent selection for breakfast. The one thing that made my stay pretty miserable was that the room was insanely hot, especially on the top bunk which I had to take because I was the last guest in the room to arrive. I found a thermostat but when I tried to turn it down, it wouldn't change. So I didn't really get much sleep because I don't sleep well in such high heat. Still I give it 4 stars because seems like a pretty decent place aside from the extreme temperature in the room.

I booked this Hostel/ Hotel becuase of the centralized location and cost. But my husband and I had a bad expereince that cheapened our experience and honeymoon. The hotel does not have quiet hours, meaning we had people in the rooms around us knocking on doors at 4:30am and 6am and talking very loudly and giggling. When we alerted the front desk, they did nothing and did not seem to care. Breakfast was toast, bagels and eggos so not very filling and sometimes room service would just forget to do your room even when you asked. If you're looking for a cheep central location this works. But be warned about not sleeping.

I only stayed for 1 night but everything was good! The price, the location and the service where great. I stayed in an 8-bed female room and it was pretty good, but we only had 1 bathroom to share which can be a problem if the room is full.

This was the worst stay I've had at Samesun. Not being informed until check-in that the water would be completely shut off in the entire building is s pretty big deal. I was woken up at 1:30-2am by people doing construction in the basement-hammering, drilling, sawing all while talking quite loudly for the quiet rule they have for guests. All this commotion in the middle of the night and the water still wasn't on by 7am. I had to check out early and use the bathroom at the bus station around the corner I normally enjoy staying at Samesun, the staff is always friendly and helpful. But this stay was just a headache. I get it that there are emergencies and no one planned for the pipes to be at fault, but there has to be a better solution than just giving out free water bottles

Hello Ryan, Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your stay. We truly apologize for this lack of communication. It was, indeed an exceptional situation and the best solution we could find to not cut the water for a full day was to do this big plumbing work at night. Hope you will still come again to see us. Have a nice day, Zoe.

Honestly, I think they could do much better. First impression when entering the place is that it looks old and smells dirty. Rug in the lobby is all stained and the dirty odor is strong. Rooms are pretty standard (not to say old) and the mattresses are very uncomfortable as well.

This was my 1st time staying at the Samesun Hostel in Montreal. It was a nice change from the other hostel that I usually stayed at. I had a nice private room with a double bed and my own washroom and shower. The location is great next to Berri-UQAM Metro. This is very central it is an interchange station. Also, you can easily walk to Old Montreal as well and around downtown. I made use of the kitchen which is great way to save money. My only complaint is that there were no tea towels to dry dishes and put them away. The drying rack gets stacked with too many dishes that need putting away to have space. Also, the kitchen is smaller than usual for hostels. One has to try and find a spot to store food on the shelves and in the fridge. The breakfast was not too bad. I just wish the orange juice was not watered down. Also, I can understand why there was limited breakfast items due to grocery prices being higher now. Things like eggs and more fruit would be nice. It was nice to have apples at least for fruit. They have really good beer from Boréale which is local from Quebec. The bar tender was very friendly when we chatted briefly one night. Thank you Samesun Hostel for a wonderful week in Montreal. I would consider staying with you again next time I return.
