Noémie's place was incredible. My mom and I stayed there for three nights and we had the most amazing time . I have only ever visited the more touristy central parts of Montreal before and chose this place because I wanted to explore a different neighborhood and get more of a taste of being a local. I couldn't have made a better choice ! Noémie greeted us upon arrival and took a lot of her time to give us many ideas of things to do in the neighbourhood , showed us on a detailed map , her favourite restaurants and cafes. Everything was so well organized and presented in such an approachable, friendly and wonderful way - we were immediately inspired to explore.
Noémie is the most amazing and attentive host I've ever met , allowing all the privacy one needs but being just a message away when needed.
The place : plenty of space for two or even more people , with so many fun bright details , it felt we were getting little glimpses into Noémie's travels. The bed was extremely comfortable and the blackout curtains allowed for very peaceful sleep. We had everything we could wish for and needed during our stay. The kitchen was sos spacious and we loved having breakfast there (with all the amazing local goods we got at the Jean Talon market just ten minutes walk away).
The area : we were here in April so I could only imagine how beautiful it gets when all the trees wake up for spring and summer. The area feels very quiet and clean and yet is full of amazing and unique restaurants and bars all in walking distance. There are lots of delicious South /Central American restaurants around the corner that we thoroughly enjoyed ! The Jean Talon Market is such a treat to visit , we bought local wines , cheeses , delicious fruits and veggies to name a few , such a great experience to stroll around there !
Theplace is located within 10 mins to 3 subway stations , with the subway super efficient andeasy to navigate.
As it rained lots we visited the Upstairs Jazz bar which had such memorable music and also great food ! The Beaux Arts was also a great visit. The Mont Royal was worth a whole day visit with many walking trails to explore !:)
Thank you so much for such a memorable and positive experience all around ! Hope to be back!
