My friend and I lived in this apartment for four months while studying at McGill on exchange from Australia. We could not have been happier with the apartment, or the help and support we received from Amy and her boyfriend.
It was an ideal location, surrounded by nightlife, groceries, shopping, and taking just 12 minutes to walk to McGill. We could comfortably walk almost everywhere, and very rarely used public transport.
Having flown into Montreal from Australia, I arrived at the apartment at 1am and was warmly greeted by Amy. The apartment was fully stocked with necessities and a gift basket with chocolates and maps was on the bench. It did not take long to settle in, and begin thinking of the apartment as home.
Amy and her boyfriend were always available with suggestions about the city and help around the apartment for things such as blown light bulbs. They were excellent communicators, happily going above and beyond their duties. At one point they even brought us their barbecue so that we could have a barbecue night with our Aussie friends. They treated us with the utmost respect and friendship and we are extremely grateful for their kindness and hospitality.
We found the apartment spacious, and the patio out the back is a beautiful place to relax with friends or to work on a warm day.
