I would absolutely recommend staying at Dave’s place if you are visiting Montreal. We stayed for 2 nights and the location was great. It is located inside an old hotel that has been renovated into a self check in Airbnb. Check in was easy super easy! . The place was clean and the photos were very accurate except the TV was missing due to repairs. Very close to old Montreal and downtown Montreal. Everything was within walking distance. The only issue was with noise. The street can be very busy at night but when we closed the windows the sound was muted a bit.
