Super 8 Motel

Super 8 Motel

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Yes we once came to Quebec with Alex and stayed at the Chateaux Frontenac and here we are with Brandon at the Super 8. Blame the American economy. The dollar is almost even with the Canadian Looney and we can no longer afford the luxury that the strong dollar afforded us. However, I want to say right up front that except for location I don’t feel like we settle, this hotel is anything but a budget location.

I was impressed as soon as I walked into the lobby. There are two small sofas and a fireplace that are very warm and welcoming. The breakfast room, where the free breakfast is servied from 6-10 is located right off of it and we could see several people in there using their laptops (there is free wireless in the public areas) and others watching the two large flat screen TV’s.

What the kids will love is the indoor swimming pool and the 80foot long slide. There is also a hot tub so the adults won’t feel left out. Also off the lobby are the ice machine and a couple of well stocked vending machines.

Our room, 417 was on the fourth floor and had two queen sized beds. 3/4 of the rooms are non smoking at this hotel. The bathroom was basic with french milled soap, shampoo towels and little extra room, the vanity was good sized however and it has a nightlight and hair-dryer. Right outside the bathroom there is an open closet with hangers and also an iron and ironing board. On the opposite wall is the coffee maker.

There is a TV with over 40 channels and several at least were English as well as pay for view movies. What we really loved was the microwave and small fridge. There is also a small table and two chairs. There is high speed internet access in the room but you need to bring your cord.

The rooms has plenty of local information and the ever useful Voila Quebec.

The beds are very firm and the pillows large and comfortable. The room was very clean and everything was in good repair. There are two lights on the wall between the beds and there is a pole lamp which you can move around to use as you need.

Entrance is through interior corridors and there is an elevator. The price for the room with breakfast for the three of us was $98 before tax, parking was free. I originally was going to stay at the Courtyard downtown and it was $179 without breakfast and an additional $19 for parking, before tax. I basically spent half of what I would have. What I sacrificed was location. This is more than 7 miles from the old city and I will have to find parking when we drive in but I think it is a fair trade.
