Mario is the best host you can ever hope to have. We were visiting Quebec City with our friend from California and Mario had a US flag on his house to welcome us. He made us feel absolutely at home even preparing a cup of coffee and keeping milk ready for us in his refrigerator. He spent over 30 minutes helping us plan our day with excellent suggestions for places to visit and eat. He even shared with us his stories from work and his passion of vintage cars. His house is extremely clean and very well done. He kept a visitors guide book with maps of the city and pamphlets of key attractions in the room. He let us use his personal wifi and cable tv. Mario's house is a true home away from home. We would strongly recommend staying with Mario if his place in available.
