We are a family of five who have moved from Australia for 12 months and were lucky to stubble across Kathleen's place. We stayed here for the first month while we familiarised ourself with Quebec City and looked for a permanent place to stay. Unfortunately we couldn't extend for the full year due to other bookings as it was a perfect place to stay.
Kathleen was a perfect host with a well equipped executive level home. Check in was simple, the place was warm and cosy upon our arrival in -25C (from 35C in Aus) and Kathleen had even left food supplies akin to a bed'n'breakfast. After a long journey from Aus, we felt instantly at home, and very much glad we chose an AirBnB over hotel stay. Although assistance with our bags would have been nice; it took a while to get 10 suitcases plus carry on up the three flights of stairs.
The place was situated in a perfect place in picturesque Old Town. We were able to easily walk to many restaurants, places of interest and attractions, groceries and shops. The condo does not have its own on or off street parking which does limit access. That being said, if you arrive in snow season, keeping your car on the streets would be annoying due to the need for frequent city snow maintenance operations. A long term car park at Hotel de Ville (about 5 min walk) was purchased for approx $190pm. This listing should include this as part of the price given the premium.
Communication with Kathleen was excellent prior to and during our stay. It was like talking with a friend which was well received given our big move from Australia. Many helpful tips were provided to help us transition to life in Quebec.
I would very much recommend this stay. This was our first AirBnB experience and is going to be hard to top.
Thanks again Kathleen.
