This is a very cozy apartment that is within 2 minute walk to the metro station, which was a convenient way to get around the city. The host was reachable and helpful when we needed his help.

Note that the backstreet was not plowed when we were there so the parking spot at the back of the house was not accessible in the event of heavy snow. Also in the winter, hot water might be an issue. There's usually enough for 2 people to shower, but it can be an issue if you're party >2.
Overall it's a great place to stay if you're visiting Montreal. We would definitely come back again next time.
