The Société de Transport de Montréal offers other good maps on their web site (www.stm.info/english/info/a-plans.htm).
The closest metro station to the Auberge is the Guy-Concordia Station (www.stm.info/english/metro/a-m34.htm#Quartier). The link on the station will give you the metro schedule and also the schedules of all the buses that serve the station, and the Auberge.
