Joe was very easy to talk to, he responded quickly and was very flexible. We were originally going to stay at a different place that Joe owned but he worked with us and moved us to a place that was much closer to downtown Montreal. The apartment was very clean and nice. The only complaint I have was that I didn’t realize it was a hostel until after we had booked it. In my situation it wasn’t an issue because we weren’t going to be spending much time in the apartment anyway we just needed a place to sleep, but if you are looking for a place to stay without other people that’s something to keep in mind. However Joe was very nice about where he placed us, and he moved us to this apartment which was being rented by people our age and they ended up being really cool. Overall, Joe is a nice guy and easy to work with and if you don’t mind sharing a place with a couple other groups of travelers he’s your guy.
