We loved our stay here! And would come back tomorrow if we could. The neighborhood was perfect for us- we could walk to coffee shops, lunch, and dinner places. We didn’t have a car, but there were bixi stands on most corners for us! We loved walking to the nearby park to eat our meals- something everyone else seemed to be doing too!
The flat itself was spacious for my wife and me. It feels larger than a studio, and was clean and had all the amenities we needed. We were able to make a meal and do laundry as needed.
If you like to walk to shops, spend time in parks, and see families riding their bikes together, this is the place for you. It’s bike-able (although about 2 miles) to the Botanic Garden and to Old Port, but definitely a drive to downtown.
One note- if you have a lot of luggage or trouble climbing stairs, it is a second floor apartment with a spiral staircase- just like the other apartments in the neighborhood. It was not hard for us, but may be for some.
