We’ve all stayed in places where the photos looked great...but when you arrived you saw that they were carefully staged to make the place look better than it really is. This is NOT one of those places. It lived up 100% to the photos and description! If you enjoying going to the market and preparing a meal for your group, this is the place. The market is wonderful and the kitchen is amazingly equipped! The grill and garden are wonderful too.
If you like to go out, there are many great options nearby and the recommendations in Jaques’ Book are spot on.
Downtown is a short metro or pleasant Bixi ride away. And there’s always Uber. We took Bixis to Park Mont Royal, hiked to the top (should have just ridden the bikes to the top) and Ubered back in time to lay out charcuterie and prepare dinner, all from the market Jean Talon purchased earlier in the day.
We’re looking for an excuse to return!
