the hostel has very clean co work bathrooms super clean I stayed in a female dorm room it was comfortable and the area was walkable to stores and the bus stops the metro station was very close the only thing I didn't like was the charging port you need an adapter to charge your phone or the staff will rent you one or you have to buy it the breakfast was really good I really liked the bagels I met a lot of people at this hostel the hostel had good vibes

plugs in my dorm room didn't work with out an adapter female bathroom could have been cleaner also it snowed a lot during my stay also their is no elevator you have to walk up stairs

The breakfast was fantastic, the bed was comfy and the space was very clean with a reading light and lots of hooks. Also nice to have group activities to enjoy!

It could be explained better how the laundry works - I asked if it was "coin operated" and was told yes, so when I brought down my clothes I asked for change in quarters - but it hadn't been explained to me before that everything in the hostel is actually paid for by card, and the laundry uses a special coin. So having that explained from the first time laundry is inquired about would be helpful! :)

The hostel is one block away from a subway station and two blocks from Catherine street. The neighborhood is really nice, clean and high end. The bathroom was very clean and the A/C worked perfectly. The breakfast is very good, I would say a bit more than basic and is enough to start the day with a full stomach. The bed is equipped with light and a socket plus a little shelf to put your basics. They give you towels. All the staff was super helpful and knowledgeable. The hostel has small working rooms which are very convenient if you want to get away from the noise.

There is no lift so I needed to climb the stairs to the third floor which was mostly difficulty when checking in and out with all the luggage. The in-room lockers didn't have a lock unless you bring your own.

4 bed female room was a nice experience. Sharing an ensuite with only 3 other people is a definite plus for a hostel experience. The room was a good size, beds had privacy curtains, the kitchen downstairs was well equipped. Good location to access most of Montreal easily by foot or via the metro. friendly staff. I didn't get to do any of the social activities, but they do offer them most nights.

If you are on the third floor, it is a lot of stairs to walk down to the kitchen/living area in the basement, or even the ground floor. Just a note for accessibility if you have issues with that. The staff were kind enough to help me carry my suitcase up.

Breakfast was pretty much bagels, bread, pastries, cold cereal, fruit, but it was really good and items replenished constantly. The coffee was excellent. Guests were responsible for washing their own dishes. The breakfast/bar/games room was roomy with lots of tables and chairs, couches, lots of games, books etc. There was a lovely outside sitting area off the breakfast room as well. We had a large room with our own bathroom. The bed was large and very comfortable. The room had shelves and cubbies for storing clothing and other items. I had never stayed in a Hostel before, but I would definitely stay here again. The location was close to the train station, Old Montreal, Mont Royal, many great restaurants etc. l

The best part was that the hostel arrange for free guided visits to nearby places. If you are staying here make sure you take advantage of this service. My room had an attached toilet which was very convenient, specially in the night don't have to go out of the room. Every morning they use to clean the toilet. Since the room was used by only four people the toilet use to be clean most of the time. Location was also good right in the center of the city. Breakfast had good options and was available for a longer period( 7:00-11:00) also the common room was big a lot of space to sit. The Kitchen was the best fully equipped with six stoves very clean and organized.

The beds needs to be more sturdy(maybe connect it to the sidewall), so if one person move the upper bed person is not distribute.

I was in Canada from October 1st to 24th and made 8 reservations at this hostel. I had only booked my first day at the hostel, but I liked it so much that I extended my stay. I stayed at other hostels, but I always returned to Saintlo because this is without a doubt the best hostel in Montreal. The hostel is always clean, has breakfast, and has a familiar and friendly atmosphere. I would like to thank the staff (CoCo and Flor) who always kept the hostel very clean and whenever I asked, they provided me with more towels and whatever I needed. I would like to thank the volunteers who are very welcoming, friendly and make a huge difference at the hostel with daily activities for the guests (Valéria, Declan, Laura, Blanca, Evan and Luis). I would like to highlight Valéria who is a volunteer and also a staff member at the hostel. She is an incredible person, very hard-working, very dedicated to the hostel and has a lot of potential. The hostel has a bar in the same area as the snooker table, which allows for interaction between guests. Not to mention the Bar Manager Phelipe, who is the fun of the bar and interacts with everyone, making the atmosphere fun and friendly. The bar wouldn't be the same without him. These days that I spent at the hostel were incredible and made my vacation in Canada even more special. This hostel is without a doubt one of the best I've ever been to.

The place is spotless. The dining area and washrooms were clean enough to eat off the floor. The staff members are courteous and professional, but also warm and welcoming. Finally, the location and free breakfast offering makes for better value for your dollar.

A single room for 1 adult is essentially comprised of a bunk bed with a mattress I deemed too soft for comfort. Also, although it is good value for its location, I would not deem the value proposition. Considering it was mid-week in April, I still paid $116 for a single night. As with any hotel or hostel, prices spike during peak season, which in Montreal is essentially June through Labour Day, as well as on Fridays and Saturdays, in other words, peak weekdays. No surprise there.

This hostel is one of the best I've ever stayed at! Gorgeous building with lots of amenities on offer. The room was spacious with curtains and plugs, a backpackers dream! I was only staying 1 night but would love to come back and make use of the events on offer. The bar downstairs is a big bonus, and the staff all seem like they like eachother which is great to see! I was even blown away when I was offered help with my luggage :) Free ear plugs on offer, food options available for purchase. Quiet rooms. I didn't make it to breakfast but the fact that it was on until 11am was amazing to see!

The en-suite fan was rather loud.

Staff is friendly & helpful. 2 staff at the desk 24/7. Room/ bed set up: each bed had a privacy curtain, outlet, little shelf by the head of the bed, small locker space. Kitchen & dining area: LOTS of different tools for cooking your own food. Kitchen is open at all times, except 2-4pm (yes, even open at 2am). Big fridge -- you can store your own food in separate, labelled trays. Dining area has many various seating configurations, very flexible. Long breakfast window (7.30am- 11am). No discrimination against late sleepers & people come down in a more staggered fashion. After checkout, they have free luggage storage until midnight that day. Super helpful.

The 10 females room having just one washroom (shower & toilet together) is a little uncomfortable. One shower per room is fine ofc. I wish there was an extra 2-3 bathroom stalls on every floor, rather than just the one extra bathroom per floor. Can't get a water bottle at the bar.
