Maxim's place was fantastic! It was on a quiet little street, and yet close enough to major streets that led right to the downtown area. The place was very clean, tidy, and well-decorated; sleeping at night was very comfortable. He had maps showing restaurants in the area and local tourist attractions, and also had up-to-date guidebooks on hand, which were very helpful to us. He was very welcoming and made us feel at home; he even got up early and prepared a little surprise for us as we prepared for the next leg of our journey! We would definitely look at booking this place again if we get the chance to come back to Quebec City again!
