Mendy's place was excellent and exactly as described. The little kitchenette was perfect for cooking small meals. There is a metro station nearby so super easy to get all key locations around Montreal. Uber to the airport took about 15min which also made travelling very easy. The place is actually pretty quiet apart from occasional noise coming from upstairs but that's completely understandable for a basement studio.
Mendy is an excellent host and was always quick to respond. I really enjoyed my stay and would happily come back to Mendy's place again.
