As a solo female traveler, I felt completely safe and comfortable here. It is a fantastic location - you can easily walk to everything. I was about to walk to Gare Centrale to catch my train in about ten minutes, even hauling my luggage. It probably would have been a bit more difficult going the other way, since you do have to climb a hill to get there - but still manageable. Beautiful, stylish, quiet apartment. I would happily stay here again the next time I visit Québec.
