Marie's apartment was exceptionally clean. Many surfaces seemed very fresh as if painted recently. Details like the umbrellas were very much appreciated. The kitchen was very well equipped. My wife and I were quite comfortable in this apartment. It would be suitable for a family with small children. We walked everywhere in Quebec. We shopped at Metro market on Rue Cartier; we walked to Old Town for lunch or dinner. The experience is what we anticipated and were happy with our choice.
