We were completely thrilled with Jean-Francois's lovely, inviting, second-floor apartment. It was in a quiet neighborhood near restaurants, shopping and the old, historic part of Quebec City. Jean-Francois greeted us when we arrived, and gave us very good directions for parking to unload our luggage. He gave us a map showing how to get to a safe parking lot and how to walk back to the apartment. He was extremely helpful sharing an assortment of maps and brochures about things to do and see in Quebec City along with recommendations for restaurants and grocery stores to suit our needs.
He has done a lovely job of completely remodeling this apartment. It is warm and comfortable with artistic touches. There is a full kitchen outfitted with everything you would need to cook meals, including spices, condiments, coffee makers, coffee, tea, cooking oil and bottled water just to name a few things. There is a lot of natural light since this is on a corner with windows on three sides, and he has done an expert job of installing lighting throughout the apartment. He even has installed mood lighting in different colors. There are plenty of electrical outlets throughout the apartment. There are blackout curtains for the bedroom window and separating it from the living room.
We were amazed at the supplies he provided in the bathroom as well as the kitchen. Plenty of shampoo, soap, and towels. He even has razors, brushes, Q-tips, and other items you might need but forget to pack.
We were also very happy that there is a very new washer and dryer and all the laundry supplies right in the apartment since we were there for several days.
The stairs up to the apartment from the front are steep and narrow. We found it easier to use the back door stairs to the side street.
In addition to a fabulous apartment, Jean-Francois was extremely helpful, warm and friendly. We were pleased that he lived on the floor above and that he responded so quickly to texts when we had a question.
We had an exceptional experience and would not hesitate to recommend this apartment to anyone who is looking for a spacious, quiet, well-appointed place from which to enjoy the sites of Quebec City.
