Alex was a great host! He was readily available and made our stay most welcoming. The place was clean with lots of extras for a comfortable stay. It was our first time to montreal and alex was more than nice enough to go out of his way and give is great suggestions and ideas on where to go or what to do. The place is about 15 minutes away from the core and 5 minutes away from monk village. I would reccomend this place to anyone who plans to visit the city. we will deffeinetly book again i when we come back to visit!
