The place is very safe and quiet. There’s a front desk there so good security and guide if you need to know anything about the building. Apartment was clean, they provide everything you need, even laundry detergent. One thing to know about this area, Grifftown is that it’s a new upcoming area that is still developing in Montreal. Cafes and Restaurants in the area might be limited. But there’s some famous ones nearby like Joe beef and September cafe. A bit of a walk to downtown and old Montreal. I came in the winter so the roads were snowy. This location is more perfect for the spring or summer time cause you can grab a bike and ride up the coastline without any traffic but winter the bikes are put away by the city
