I stayed at the Alexandrie Hostel for 3 days and I must say that I probably had one of the most lovely hostel experiences ever. First of all, the owner (?) Luke was a great resource for almost anything you need to know about Montreal. He exudes so much pride in the city, that he was very willing to share his knowledge of the city - from places to go, to transportation recommendations. I had fun... plus

This is a great spot! Stayed here after a couple of seriously disappointing nights at the nearby, and more costly M Montreal.

The common area is super cosy and chill. Couches and a flat screen TV with game consoles and DVD's. The kitchen is a nice size with 4 or 5 fridges to hold all the food of the hungry travellers - this is key!! I have never seen such amazing fridge real-estate in a hostel... plus

Was here for 2 nights and was a great place! Staff is a genuine,friendly group of people. Atmosphere is nice too and I felt safe . One thing though it was sooo hot at night and there were no fans , but we kept the window open and it was a little better . Other than that , felt like a nice community . I would stay here again , no doubt . Great price !
