My family of six ( my husband and I and 4 young adult children) had a wonderful time visiting Quebec City for the first time. The Zen house worked out perfectly. It was a great place to begin each day and to relax in at the end of a busy day. Alex was wonderful to work with. He was quick to respond to any questions that we had and he and his wife put in a lot of effort preparing their home for renters. It was well equipped and extremely neat and clean. The location was an easy drive to Old Quebec and a 10-15 minute walk up hill or up a steep set of stairs to shops and restaurants. We discovered that the only footwear needed when visiting the city is a good pair of sneakers! There are many hills and stairs to climb! I would highly recommend this house to anyone in good physical shape. There are two sets of steep stairs ( one up and one down) each leading to a bedroom. The stairs could be an issue for very young children or elderly people. The bedroom and bath (tub and rain shower) pictured in the basement is quite comfortable. The floor although looking unfinished is actually finished with a nice sealcoat on the concrete. There is a dehumidifier as well so there is no musty odor whatsoever. Having driveway parking was wonderful. The driveway can hold 2-3 cars. There is a good size grocery store just a 5 min. walk from the house. No need to bring groceries with you. It sells everything you would need for reasonable prices. The house/duplex is in a residential area of the city so is pretty quiet. Overall, I think this property is a great value.
