MOTEL LUSTRE D'OR, Quebec City

Motel Lustre D'Or is positioned 5 km from Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport, with Laval University (PEPS Telus Stadium) 6 km away and Plains of Abraham 8 km from the property. The nearest metro stop is 1 km away, useful for car-free travel. However, the motel sits on a road with significant truck traffic, so noise from passing vehicles is almost constant - this is not a quiet property.

Room types include double, triple, quadruple, and family rooms, all with private bathrooms. In reality, many units are dilapidated: broken windows sealed with tape, worn mattresses on rolling bases that shift with movement, no duvet - just a thin blanket, no coat hangers, no cutlery, and sometimes no working appliances. Bathroom conditions are especially poor - cracked sinks, dirty tubs with cigarette burns, black water on first use, and tiny layouts that feel cramped. Air conditioning and heating are unreliable, and traffic noise penetrates thin walls, so sleeping is difficult. A coffee shop is on site.
