While we never met Julien, it was really easy to get a hold of him and communicate with him.
The place is very eclectic and it has an outstanding patio in the back where you can enjoy a coffee in the mornings or a beer at night. The bar beside the place gives it a great ambiance.
The location could not be any better, steps away from great food, coffee, beer, wine and old Quebec.
You get a free 1 day bike rental from a place just below, this was outstanding! It gave us the opportunity to explore outside of the main touristy areas and get a better feel for the city. The people from the bike place were also super friendly.
Things that could be a bit of an issue: it can get a little noisy at night, as the place is next door to a bar (great bar nonetheless); to prevent the noise you need to keep the windows closed so the space can get a little stuffy if it’s hot outside all day.
Lastly, the place is old, so lots of character, but comes with some drawbacks, specially for anyone who may have mobility challenges.
All in all, great host, great place, great location, just pack some earplugs.
