Eric's place is definitely in the centre of the St-Denis action if that is what you are looking for. A great HUGE apartment of the traditional style in this neighborhood. Great kitchen where we were able to make a couple of good meals...lots of tools and dishes. We were pleasantly surprised by the noise on Thursday night...a distant thump of base and some music. Friday and Saturday night the noise was undeniably present and LOUD. Not a deal breaker. We were out anyway very late on Saturday so not an issue. We are fairly good sleepers and found the front room with ear plugs made for a sound sleep. Wonderful sun into the apartment from a skylight in the daytime. Lots of cozy heat, and for the fantastic price in this neighborhood, a great deal.
