Having lived in Montreal for a couple of years, i can say, the place is in a prime location. It’s in a quiet corner of the heart of the city and everything you’d come to Montreal for (especially festivals in the summer)
Sandy (our host) communicated instructive, nontheless very friendly.
For reasons of residents protection, the outside balconies (that you will have to use to access the apartment) are video surveiled.
The room we stayed in had a camera directed right at the bedroom window - something to be mindful about (there’s curtains in place, so it wasn’t a huge deal.)
Overall the apartment has a great layout, everything we needed and was exceptionally clean.
I’d come here again and you won’t regret booking here. You shouldn’t expect to befriend the proprietor, but you will have a great place to yourself.
