Spectacular views of downtown Montreal and the St. Lawrence river from this high rise corner unit! Farid's condo is well-appointed - he even left us ice cream! - and he is a thorough, prepared, and caring host. We were very comfortable during our extended stay.
The building has a fire alarm/elevator issue that is in no way the host's fault. During our two-month stay, the fire alarm went off on three different occasions for extended periods. After we climbed down 34 flights of stairs with our dog, we were then trapped in the lobby with non-working elevators for hours - once until 2 am. It was tempting to start ignoring the alarm, but there was no way to know if the risk was real without heading down.
That said, this is a great location for all things downtown, and hockey fans will enjoy the next-door proximity to the Canadiens arena.
