When we arrived at Zaki's place the temperature was about -10 degrees Fahrenheit. The apartment heated up quickly and was very cozy. It is clean, simple, and well-equipped. Some amenities we appreciated were two bed-side lamps, hooks in the bathroom, and an extra comforter for the bed. The apartment is in an excellent location--near Avenue Mont Royal, Rue Rachel, and Rue du Duluth. There are so many appealing restaurants nearby. It is also very close to the beautiful Parc La Fontaine. We had planned to be out and about far more than we were, but due to the frigid temps, we were inside quite a bit and it was so comfortable and pleasant. We hope to be back!
