This place is exactly like the pictures and everything the host says it is. Not even one block from Jean Talon market--and a beautifully appointed kitchen and generous sharing of the gas grill in the back yard allowed us to take advantage of the bounty and cook perfect fresh and fuss free family meals to eat in the idyllic enclosed setting.
The apartment is very spacious and perfect for a family with 2-3 children. It's a short walk to the metro, and a short ride to pretty much everywhere you want to be in Montreal. There's parking at the house, and on the street. If you're coming at the height of summer, the central AC is a great relief.
The hosts are very responsive to questions and messages and the young tenants in the apartment upstairs are super friendly.
The house is quintessential Montreal -- on a quiet street off a very busy one, in a residential neighborhood that is truly diverse and quite close to just about everything. Highly recommended.
