Superb stay! Loved it.
I was afraid that the picture would not match reality, but... God is good and reality is pictures and pictures is reality.

I don't necessarily like the Berri-UQAM area, but I thought it was such a cute little gem of a Boutique Hotel♥
It was quite spacious (for 1 or 2 guests). The bathroom was clean (it was really the one thing I was hoping would be immaculate). The TV was huge, so it was more fun to watch movies/tv on a bigger screen. The kitchenette had everything you'd need: utensils, soap and a sponge to wash dishes, plates, bowls, mugs and glasses. It's also very well lit.
I like the idea of having hooks for coats (or others) and that open barre to hang other clothes, and was provided 6 hangers.
The bed was soooooooooo comfortable. The pillows... I need to know where they're from.
I had stayed in an Airbnb where there were bed bugs, so I was praying it'd not be the case, and it wasn't. Especially in Mtl, with all the older buildings, and I was thinking Berri-UQAM area... It was NOT THE CASE AT COBALT boutique hotel. Thank God.
The metro station was close, literally 4 minutes away, 2 minutes if you walk fast. The shops and restaurants were nearby. You want to buy, chips, candies, alcohol (SAQ - Société des Alcools du Québec), food, books, music, it's literally 5 minutes away from this place. The university (UQAM) is not far; it'd be the perfect spot for parents to stay at as they accompany their kids to university, for example.
I was having a ''soft life'' weekend for myself and I got more than what I hoped for. The rather reasonable price for such a pristine experience did not dim the quality of the service nor the quality of the room. The prices are a good incentive too, honestly, and because it's so reasonable, I understand why they're ALWAYS BOOKED AND BUSY.
I
HIGHLY
RECOMMEND.
Merci beaucoup, c'était agréable. J'ai déjà mis le reste de mes connaissances au courant de ce petit bijou en plein centre de Montréal.
