Overall we really enjoyed our stay!
Due to our last minute booking we opted to stay in the Saint Roch area. We were fortunate with weather so the 20-25 minute walk to the city center was east. There were a lot of bars, cafes and restaurants in the area.
The studio was clean and well maintained. The walls of the apartment are thin so you could hear the neighbors next door and upstairs. If you are a light sleeper highly recommend bringing ear plugs. As mentioned in previous reviews, the bed was very firm.
While we would certainly stay here again, we did encounter one issue with homeless individuals. When trying to return one evening we found two homeless men sleeping/eating in the entry way between the two doors. We asked then to move to access the key pad. They inquired if we were staying in an air b n b. It seems the building is aware of the issues since there are signs inside indicating not to let them into the building? Fortunately I was with my husband so I felt more safe.
