Great apartment in a busy and bustling district. The apartment was clean and had all the amenities we needed (and the hosts had provided fresh towels, and plenty of water bottles !). From the apartment you can easily walk north through the trendy Mile End district up to Little Italy (where there's a great market), south through Le Plateau all the way to Old Montreal and the Downtown areas, or west to walk to the summit of Mont-Royal. Or, if you don't fancy walking, there's the Mont-Royal metro station about 3 minutes walk from the apartment. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and answered any questions very promptly.
