One of the reasons why we went to Montreal was to visit the Chinese Lanterns at the Botanical Gardens of Montreal. W's apartment in the HoMa district was not only well located for that, but also located on a very quiet street where there was none of the traffic noise associated with big cities. My husband and I really appreciated the details that went into the preparation of the lodging for guests: the double blinds on the windows, the individually controlled heating units in some of the rooms, the secure locks on the doors, the immaculate white towels to name a few. W answered our questions promptly and even offered us the 1st floor apartment when she found out we were seniors. It was a great place to stay in every way.
