MySpace friend G. Hamilton Braithwaite writes that, with the shifting of the Festival Jus Pour Rire to the Hyatt Regency Montreal (from the dear, old Delta), the new equivalent of the old Royal Vic is now the Residences Universitaires UQAM, a new building in the University of Quebec at Montreal system that offers rooms for $64 CD per night! Says Montreal resident GHB:
It’s a brand new building situated two-and-a-half blocks away from the Hyatt. You can use an underground path via the Place des Arts subway station to cut through the underground. You’ll pop up in the mall attached to the Hyatt, pick up a coffee along the way, and you get to do it all in air conditioned comfort!
Sounds good! Click on the above link to be taken to the UQAM Residences pages.
We checked out a map and he speaks the truth.
