Nikki's apartment was located in a residential area with good access to restaurants, the arts area and parking structures within a few blocks. Since we had our bikes with us, it was great to have a space under the lower back deck where we could lock them. Our favorite ride was down to the Lachine Canal and over to the island as well at lunch at the Atwater Market.
There is a lot of road repair disruption in the area so there were a few extra challenges for all modes of transportation.
The apartment is very clean and new looking. It's balcony porch with 2 chairs was a relaxing place to sit. We thought it was quite enjoyable to experience city living for several days.
