The apartment has a great location. There are plenty of nice, small restaurants and shops around and you are within walking distance of Mont Royal, Little Italy and further. It is not too far to walk downtown , either, if you want to have some exercise. The metro is 10 minutes walk, but there are a lot of buses that will bring you to the city center if you so prefer. The street has fairly busy traffic, but inside the apartment we were seldom distracted by that. The apartment is well equipped and the private back yard is great in the sun in the middle of the day, or in a hot evening with a cold beer.
