While the loft is actually a basement apartment, it is comfortable and super convenient for getting downtown and also out to Ile D'Orlean and Montmorency Falls.
It is was little noisy when folks upstairs are walking around but not a big deal.
The neighborhood is working class--nothing fancy--but certainly a safe place to walk around. We found the neighbors very friendly. A really cool, big park nearby and no more than 5 min into downtown by highway.
If you like cats, you'll love Sheldon who likes to visit. The kids loved him.
Virginie is a good host--lots of great suggestions and easy to communicate with.
