Alice's place is a nice one bedroom apt. only steps from Porte Saint-Jean, a main gate into Vieux-Québec (the old town). Walk to Parliament Hill, Plains of Abraham, the Citadel, etc. Only two doors down is a great little store with everything you need for a stay. Several restaurants, bakeries, etc. are in the first two blocks from the apt. Free parking is a plus. We were there on one of the hottest days on record. We really appreciated the air conditioning and the proximity to everything, making it easy to take a mid-day break from the heat. Recommended perfect morning: crepes at Au Petit Coin Breton, or coffee and croissants at Paillard, both just past Porte Saint-Jean. Then a 5 min. walk to the Citadel for the changing of the guard followed by a tour of the fort.
