Amazing, wonderful stay at Mark's place! It's super clean, beautifully -designed, cozy, with lots of light and a great view of the street scene. The unit is very well-situated, 5-8 mins walking distance to 2 grocery stores, 2 pharmacies, book stores, gift shops, upscale boutiques and cafes. It's in a highly-desirable area of Montreal, Mile End (Le Plateau). The famous (for a good reason!) St. Viateur Bagel is just about 10 mins walk. If bringing your car, Mark will provide very helpful and specific info on parking options. The paid covered parking lot is right behind the building, just 3 minutes walk around the corner. It's also possible to park on the street but be very careful to read the hours/times/days allowed on the street signs, as it's different in every corner. They will tow your car, if you park incorrectly. We mostly parked in the street during the day when we were sightseeing in the Old Town, or around the nearby neighborhoods. But parked in the covered garage overnight to avoid having to move the car around to comply with the street hour parking times. Overnight parking in the garage was $26CAD. Overall a wonderful stay, and would definitely love to go back to when the uncertainty Covid brings is not so intense. We feel so fortunate we got to see Montreal during Christmas time--its such a beautiful city and worth more visits in the future! We hope to stay again at Mark's place! Thanks so much for your hospitality, great communication and just overall being a wonderful host, Mark!
