This place is a really great find and it’s a very good value. It has the thoughtful touches of a more expensive Airbnb but the size and amenities of a cheaper one. The entrance way space that you share with the apartment next door (only saw the other person once in four days) adds extra space to the private room which makes things a bit less cramped. In that space you are provided with many thoughtful essentials like an umbrella (there’s also a fridge and a microwave which are only for you). The bed is huge and comfortable and for a small room, there is lots of table space to lay your things without everything feeling cluttered. The bathroom is gorgeous, bigger than you’d expect and new with a cool shower I’ve never seen before and great water pressure!
Overall, the space is very clean and thoughtfully designed and the hosts were great and helpful and provided a great restaurant recommendation. The place is in a good location, a 5 minute walk to many things (including lively st Catherine street) and a 25-30 minute walk to absolutely anything you’d want to see or do in Montreal.
A few things to note for anyone choosing an Airbnb. These are not flaws at all but just minor considerations that may be meaningful to you! The stairway entering the apartment is very steep, so if you have a mobility concern then this may not be the place for you. The bed is on the firmer side which to me is ideal but I know some people prefer a softer bed. Also, if you want to be a short walking distance to nightlife, this is the perfect place for you if you are interested in the LGBTQ scene. If that’s not your vibe, you’ll be a 30 minute walk from nightlife!
