Best location! This apartment is located in the grungy neighborhood of Saint-Jean-Baptiste and is about equidistant between Old Town and Avenue Cartier, which are both about a 10 minute walk. The apartment is located directly above a bike shop, which we conveniently rented bikes for the day to tour the Montmorency Water Falls. Just a few stores over was the best patisserie, which we went to daily for treats. We walked everywhere and would make occasional stops back at the apartment to drop off shopping bags, groceries, or to use the bathroom. It was so convenient and nice to stay in an area that was not crowded with tourists.
The AC was not great and there is poor ventilation. The AC unit made a periodic alarm noise - we couldn't use it at night. We did not sleep well. I'm assuming the unit is pet friendly because there was pet hair all over the floors, which I really did not expect and was very sensitive to. Check-in and out was very easy and David always responded right away with answers to our questions.
