Interesting place with lots of historic areas to see. Very much liked the river walk and cyvle paths. My brother lives there, which is the primary reason for the visit. May not have chosen the location in other circumstances.

The plastic and cardboard cutlery and plates at the breakfast are a disappointing experience. The breakfast is fine, all day coffee and tea available. . Although on a busy road, plenty of places nearby for lunch/dinner.

Room was not ready when I arrived at 2:15 as check in time was suppose to be at 3pm I wanted to use the bathroom as I just had 7 hours drive but no bathroom was offered instead desk staff instructions was to go around the corner to the restaurant. Upon my return at 3:30 pm again desk staff said room is not available and was suggesting to cancel. I was upset but did say and then you charge me as it is not within the hour of free cancellation. I step aside to wait and then 1 family (3) arrived and was given a room. These family was of the same skin colour with the desk staff and spoke French. I was then upset and said there was no room and then all of a sudden there is one. Is there racism here? The desk staff was offering an extension of 1 hour at check out which I do not need but I said do I have a choice? No answer.

We travelled to Laval from Ireland for a very short visit for a friend's wedding in a nearby vineyard. We had a day to ourselves and went into the Old Port in the afternoon. We used bus and metro to get there. Not speaking French was a disadvantage but staff at the Metro helped us choose the right tickets for our travel.

Both Laval and Mtl are great cities to visit, when you have great, beautiful friends who live and work there. When i visit we love going out to excellent night-time restaurants around the Centropolis-Laval and to go shopping together around both Carrefour Laval and nearby Mtl. The Mtl. francais and italien communities are very warm and friendly people.
