This is a letter to say thank you, and to let you know
that the stay I had at University Bed & Breakfast was
on par with some of my stays with the best hotels in
North America and Europe. Does that sound outrageous?
I arrived in Montreal having made no more reservations
at University B&B than a message on the voicemail and
an email. My confirmation was with an email, including
simple easy-to-follow instructions for my check-in.
I was met by Ginette, who welcomed me with
friendliness and warmth, and set the tone for the rest
of my stay. She gave me instructions, keys for the
doors, and I went upstairs. Immediately, I returned
downstairs to her. There must be some mistake, I
explained, my room is an apartment! She laughed, and
said, no, indeed that was the room. So I went back
upstairs and settled into the large, spacious,
well-equipped apartment that had so much character and comfortability I felt
as if I were at home!
From the affordability and excellent location of your
B&B, to the convenience of the laundry machines
downstairs and the security of the good neighborhood
itself (important for a first-time visitor!), I was
constantly-pleasantly-surprised during my entire week-long stay. As I travel
extensively, and plan on moving back and forth from Montreal for years to
come, I hope I have the opportunity to visit University Bed & Breakfast
again and again. In the meantime, I heartily recommend it to anyone
considering visiting Quebec. You, Ginette, and University Bed & Breakfast
made my first time in Montreal a winner.
