This space felt like a beautiful little oasis away from home! I was in Montreal for two weeks for work and had a very unpleasant experience with an air bnb on my first two days of the trip. Coming to Linda's after that experience felt like a breath of fresh air and a huge relief.
First, Linda and her daughter Katie were so accommodating dealing with a couple of booking hiccups that resulted from air bnb accidentally cancelling the booking. Katie checked me in and walked me through all of the ins and outs of the space to make sure I knew everything I needed to to be comfortable. The space had everything you need for a long stay - cooking equipment, coffee makers, great heating system, good shower pressure, storage space for clothes, space to work at your computer etc. And the decor and art is so unique - I felt at home away from home.
The neighbourhood is an absolute gem with so many great food options, grocery across the street, metro close by, parks, and a yoga studio across the street. Hot tip: there's a pizza place called Cafe San Gennaro up the street where all the locals go for coffee and breakfast pizza in the morning, and it is GOOD.
I certainly hope to be staying here every time I have to come to Montreal for work!
