Catherines place was great. It was very clean, served our purposes for location. We could walk everywhere from this location. Old Quebec was about a 20 minute walk, all uphill, so be prepared, but so many things to see and experience along the way. We took the bus from airport and our stop was literally steps away from Catherines place. Would definitely recommend if you are going to be staying and doing a lot of sightseeing in Quebec city.
