When my buddy and I were arranging a trip to Montreal, my buddy and I sure never expected that there would be major consequences for going in the winter. I mean, my buddy and I expected some uncomfortable consequences, such as chilly our butts off outdoors every day, however my great friend and I weren’t expecting balmy weather or anything. My great friend and I realized that the weather might be stormy as well as icy! What my buddy and I never anticipated, however, was the opening that it would be more costly to go in the winter. Who would want to go during the darkest, coldest months of the year, afterall? Well, no one, and that’s partially because the cost of staying in the neighborhood skyrockets as the temperature plummets. When my buddy and I started looking at hotels, the prices seemed rather high compared to other cities as well as the figures my buddy and I had seen in Montreal before. I wasn’t’ sure if there was a major concert or festival happening that might drive up the interest in renting a hotel room, but in fact, it was nothing of the sort, however the immense increase in price was due truly to the low winter season uneven temperatures… because the hotel has to compensate for the cost of heating. Apparently they do not get great deals from the energy supplier as well as have to worry about their customers using too much heat in their facilities. If there is a ton of heat pumping into every room, the hotel’s bills increase sizablely until the air temperature evens out again. I didn’t understand how it could be such a significant energy expense for them… until I arrived as well as realized how chilly it was. I truly abused the furnace in our hotel room, running it at maximum speed as well as heating power. Thank god it was already included in the price of the room.
