Gabriel's place was a great choice. There is a grocery store, SAQ and Dollarama within walking distance. The kitchen has everything you need to cook your meals. We brought our dog and were able to walk him down the sidewalk everyday. The hottub is quite the treat after your day of exploring. Old Quebec is only 15 - 20 minutes depending on the time of day you go. Valcartier is only 15 minutes away for an indoor/outdoor waterpark and tubing depending on the season you go. There are various other towns close by to explore.
