I used to live in Montreal and the location of this place was perfect for our needs - very central / accessible if you're visiting. We spent most of our time around the plateau and park LaFontaine visiting friends, but it's close enough to walk downtown, to the old port or up mount royal. A short walk to a metro station too if you prefer to use transport. Lots of atmosphere to take in around St-Denis street (food, bars etc). We didn't spend much time in the room, but it was clean and had everything we needed. We even had a nice view of Mount Royal from our window too!
