This is an absolutely ideal apartment from which to explore the vibrant city of Montreal. The apartment has been meticulously renovated and very thoughtfully curated for guests--everything you might need is provided and the outdoor space is a great place to have a meal outside or relax and read a book. We loved playing records and cooking in the nicely appointed kitchen. I also found it to be very comfortable for a family traveling with small children--my four year old daughter slept on the sofa bed and my infant son in a baby bed which the host kindly provided.
I cannot imagine a better location--right in the middle of "The Main", a vibrant main street filled with great restaurants, cafes and shops, and walking distance to pretty much everything--including the Mile End neighborhood and Mount Royal Park. I was fascinated to learn that Leonard Cohen lived across the street and enjoyed stopping in at some of his favorite haunts. I also fell in love with Darling, a great cafe/bar on the corner. Visitors to Montreal would be very lucky to stay here!
