Cedric is a great host—super responsive, really friendly, and very helpful. The place is great; it's spacious and really nicely located. I didn't spend a ton of time there, but it was a good place to sleep, keep some groceries in the fridge, do some reading and send a few emails between getting out, and overall to use as a base-camp for visiting Montreal. It's a fantastic location, right near the Mont-Royal park, and right at the intersection of some super fun neighborhoods. I was able to explore a lot of Montreal, and the area around Cedric's Airbnb was by far my favorite. I recommend going northeast into the rest of the Plateau area to experience a really wonderful community.
