L'Abri du Voyageur

Montréal


It’s on a seedy stretch of Rue Ste-Catherine but if you’re not turned off by the nearby sex clubs (no pun intended), you can enjoy clean, cozy rooms with exposed-brick walls, wood floors and comfortable furnishings. Some rooms are spacious with tiny kitchenettes, while others could use more natural light. Overall, it's good value for money.
