Review Summary

Motel Motel is described as a cozy, smartly designed spot with a friendly vibe and an overall great experience, especially for electronic music fans who appreciate a back bar with a DJ and a compact space that still feels lively for late night drinks; reviews note its Montreal location and tendency to draw visitors, but also point to ups and downs in consistency, with some praising the decor while others find the service direct and cold, and the cocktail program lacking depth and polish, including a margarita made with low quality tequila and a limited selection of drinks, along with at least one comment about a cash payment policy that frustrates guests.View restaurant profile
