Our 3-1/2 week visit was disappointing. The apartment was advertised with “free parking on premises” but this was not true- free parking is available on the street but in winter in Montreal this involves competing with others and with the weather. As this had been a key selection criteria for us, a major disappointment which the owner made no effort to offset. Although small, the layout is good with a well-equipped kitchen and good internet and Amazon Fire TV fare. Room to sleep 6 (2 beds plus a pull-out) but the sofa, which was sole perch for TV, was the most uncomfortable piece of furniture imaginable, with wire interior and wood frame all that supports the seated guest, very painful. Our host did not respond to suggestions that the sofa be replaced- hope it is changed for future visitors. There are two washrooms (bonus!) but the furnishings are aged and the main washroom difficult to clean. Finally, no indication in the unit profile that coming and going needs to negotiate stairs to the 3rd floor (no elevator) - minor inconvenience except for us with big suitcases. We ate well, slept well but struggled when we “stayed home” since the main living room furniture (the sofa) was so uncomfortable. The upstairs outside deck/balcony looks nice for a summer visit but was not useful in our December visit.
