Categories

Cleanliness
7.8
Mixed: several guests said the apartment was clean and rather new, but there were also reports of visible stains on the living-room carpet and sofa and some missing/forgotten bedding items.
Service
8
Mixed digital-first approach: digital check-in and digital room cards were praised, but front desk did not resolve a parking fob issue for one guest and lounge access was restricted to members.
Location
10
Very positive: repeatedly praised for excellent location and views, near old city, bus stops, bars/restaurants, Lachine Canal and bike paths; large windows with skyline views are a highlight.
Room Quality
8.2
Generally good: spacious, modern and well equipped with comfortable beds and heated bathroom; negatives include noise from ventilation/trains, lack of curtains, a bedroom without a proper door, occasional maintenance issues (TV, dishwasher).
Amenities
9.2
Strong in-room amenities (in-suite laundry, kitchen, secure bike storage, heated bathroom, coffee, pillows) though some reports of a broken dishwasher, missing dish rack and limited glasses/cutlery; no on-site parking.
Value for Money
7
Perceived as weak by some guests (one explicit comment that the price was not worth it); generally good facilities but noise and some maintenance issues lower perceived value.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Standard quality for this hotel tier: very few mentions beyond coffee and lounge access (which was restricted), so assigned the overall target rating.
Overall Experience
9.3
Overall favorable: many guests loved the view, location, modern and spacious apartments and digital access; some disruptive negatives (noise, parking/fob, minor maintenance) but overall stays described as very good.

Two nights in Montreal
Pros:

Spacious apartment with good size rooms. Comfy. Close to Old Montreal

Cons:

AC unit only in the living area. Had to leave the room doors open for the rooms to cool. Fortunately the AC unit did a good job cooling the entire apartment

Perfect city apartment for travelers or longer stay.
Pros:

I love that it was a perfectly compact apartment with all of the necessary items you need for daily living, I especially liked the washer and dryer. The kitchen set up was perfect for light meals or reheating takeout.

Cons:

Would’ve liked more hangers in the closets and shades facing the adjacent building.

Pros:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We had a fantastic stay at Werfy! From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. The apartment was exceptionally clean, beautifully designed, quiet, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is excellent, with plenty of great restaurants, cafés, and attractions just a short walk away.

What really made the difference was the owner. He was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience. He was always responsive, helpful, and went above and beyond to make us feel at home.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Montreal. We highly recommend Werfy and will definitely choose it again on our next visit!

Stayed since we only had a small amount of time to visit Montreal, would NEVER recommend to anyone
Pros:

Nothing comes to mind

Cons:

the third party process used to enter the place, the rudeness of the front desk person, the room had broken furniture,, the bad air conditioning situation, the lack of response and/or any help from front desk, the lack of any response from the third party and no call back about the situation. just terrible service No one available to ask any questions, just sit on the phone as the person on other end could NOT do anything about it but report it to the next level (useless) Have been out of the country before but NEVER experienced this terrible lack of customer service....

Modernes Zimmer mit unzuverlässigem Zutritt zum Zimmer
Pros:

Modernes Zimmer, gute Lage, schöner Ausblick

Cons:

Der Checkin Prozess ist eine reine Katastrophe und sollte einem zu Denken geben, ob man jedes mal gestresst ins Zimmer kommen möchte.
Man hat nur per Handy App Zugang zum Zimmer, welche aber überhaupt nicht zuverlässig funktioniert (auf einem unserer neueren Handys funktionierte der Zugang per App bis zur Abreise überhaupt nicht).
Eine gute Internet Verbindung ist dafür ebenso notwendig. Ohne funktionierendes WLAN und eine Zugangstür, die im Inneren des Gebäudes ohne Fenster liegt, führte das bei jedem Versuch das Zimmer zu betreten, zu mehreren vergäudeten Minuten vor der Tür, um den Türcode zu generieren und die Tür zu öffnen.

Wenig hilfreich ist dabei, dass uns über eine Stunde lang nur per Ferndiagnose per Whatsapp Chat geholfen wurde ins Zimmer zu kommen. Persönlich kam niemand vorbei und es gibt auch keine Rezeption.
Das vorab gebuchte Parkhaus fürs Auto konnten wir auch nicht nutzen, weil der Chip für das Parkhaus noch im alten Zimmer lag bei dem der Zugang ja nicht funktionierte und man nicht bereit war am selben Tag uns noch den Chip vorbeizubringen. Weshalb wir uns eine alternative Parkmöglichkeit bei dem ganzen Stress zusätzlich suchen mussten.
Abgebucht wurden die Parkhauskosten trotzdem und man musste sich wieder darum kümmern diese zurückzubekommen.

Ein Entgegenkommen des Anbieters war lediglich ein kostenloser früherer Checkin bzw. späterer Checkout bei der nächsten Buchung. Immerhin war Booking kooperativ und ermöglichte uns ein Entgegenkommen.

We would not stay again
Pros:

Location

Cons:

When we arrived at the building there was no indication that this was WERFY. The hotel was called something different which was very frustrating. The listing mentioned parking but none was available. The room was not ready for our arrival causing us to be late for our evening event and no parking outside while we waited for the cleaner to prepare our room.
