Fares's apartment is gorgeous. It's comfortable, spotlessly clean, well equipped. The kitchen has everything you might need to cook a bang-up meal. And if that's your plan be sure to go to the Jean Talon market. Even if that's not your plan, go to the market. Just lovely. And while you're at the market, go to O''Bagel for a Montreal treat. Fares himself is charming and gracious, very easy to communicate with. The neighborhood is fine but somewhat out of the way (though I suppose that depends on where you are going) -- about 15 minute drive to McGill and downtown Montreal (and that's without traffic, and there is usually traffic). But still, a great airbnb experience. Merci Fares.
