I stayed at Pensione Popolo for multiple weeks on a work trip and Tammy the manager was super accommodating, available for questions and making sure the stay is going smoothly and comfortably. Amazing location right in the iconic Mile End, close to metros, bus lines and walking distance to different neighbourhoods, parks and food. Crisp A/C, fast wifi and multiple shared showers/bathrooms. Even with the communal aspect there is a lot of privacy and all of the other guests I met seemed happy and polite! The negative reviews are confusing to me as if you read the booking it clearly states what amenities are present in the space. Yes you are on one of the main arteries of Montreal - sounds of city come with it! There is a shared fridge and kettle. Even with my long term stay I made it work just fine. Truly an affordable, well located place to stay after exploring Montreal all day! I would definitely book in here again.

Amazing stay. The manager, Tammy, was super nice. The building itself has an amazing vibe to it, I felt like I was in a bohemian NY apartment (and being hyperbolic here, but it's connection to Casa made me feel like it was Patti Smith staying at the Chelsea, such a cool venue)

Cozy and charming

Overall we had a good experience. We loved all the quirky artwork everywhere. :) The beds were comfy, we liked the ease of having door codes and no keys to keep track of, and the shared sitting room (once someone pointed it out to us) was super cute and a nice place to write and eat meals in. It was weird, though, not having someone to check in/out with or ask questions face to face with. For example, we didn’t know there were two more bathrooms down the hall that were better furnished until one of our fellow visitors pointed it them out, we never did figure out where the courtyard or patio were, so we couldn’t use them, and we didn’t know that some people just left their food out in the shared tea area until we almost ate someone else’s breakfast rolls (thinking they were part of the hotel treats along with the tea service). Those are the kinds of things I’d ask a person at the desk about without a thought, but wouldn’t ask an email correspondent who isn’t likely to get back to me right away. It would be helpful if there were a little map or guide to the tiny hotel with that info in it in the room when you come in.

Such a cute, fun place to stay while exploring Montreal. The air conditioning was top notch on some very hot days, and although we heard the music downstairs, it was always stopped by 11 and we didn't think it was that loud. The owner was super friendly and lovely.

The bathroom was disgusting, unclean with hairs all over the floor. I literally sat down on the bed and then got up and left and went somewhere else. I have no words. No reception, no bottle of promised wine, I feel really bad leaving a negative review but there was so many excellent reviews I thought maybe this people be helpful for someone to know just what they were getting into. So sorry!!
