Positive: John was very responsive in communication, clean apartment, good wifi, easy check-in, location close to nightlife, lots of parking spaces on the street.
Negative: Check-in was delayed by an hour from 2 PM to 3 PM and I was in a rush to get ready for an event.
If you don't know Montreal, you may feel it's a fairly sketchy area (massage parlour as the next door neighbour).
Hosts didn't provide anything (even a bottle of water).
