François’ apartment is exactly as advertised. Large, bright, spacious, well-decorated and very clean. We had all the amenities we needed in a short term accommodation and the perfect location in the heart of the Plateau neighbourhood of Montreal. François was an excellent host who communicated promptly and pleasantly. He assembled a “house book” with a wealth of tourist information about the surrounding area, including an incredibly helpful parking map to assist us in finding free parking (which is a challenge in Montreal). Check in and check out were easy. There was a bit of noise late at night after the bars closed on the street, but closing the windows shut it right out. This apartment is a gem and we hope to be able to rent it again on our next trip to Montreal.
