1. Location:
(a) Day to Day:
You do NOT need any form of metro/subway card if you do choose this listing, everything (and I mean E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G) is within a very reasonable walking distance. Located at an awesome area of Montreal where you’ll be able to walk to a pharmacy store that sells everything, great coffee just around the corner within 5 mins. There’s also a cute little book store that sells highly affordable books within 5 mins.
(b) Sights:
These are all calculated according to how long it took me to walk (a normal healthy man): Place des Arts 8 mins, McGill U 10mins, Mont Royal 12 mins, Downtown Montreal 15 mins, La Fontaine 28 mins (all the great local food is surrounding this area), Mile End 30 mins.
2. Hospitality:
(a) Host and hostess:
Erika and Pepe is the best Airbnb host and hostess I’ve ever had in my experience with Airbnb. They are a very down to earth, extremely kind, always so helpful with all of my questions about Montreal (and even about life in general!). Recommended very local and memorable restaurants and sights for me to check out during my stay in Montreal. I KNOW I’ll stay in touch with them even after my trip in Montreal!
(b) Cat:
The cat will be there, the listing says (CAT LOVERS) for a reason! He also happens to be one of the most adorable one I’ve met in a long long time. Be prepared for him to always drop by and say hi when you return home. Junos always respected my schedule and personal space. He tried to communicate with me all the time, one cute little thing!
(c) Listing:
Erika and Pepe keeps the listing very clean as they live there as well. The bathroom is very sanitized and hygienic. The bedroom is well lit during the day and dim at night when you need to fall asleep. The bed is insanely comfortable (I slept past my alarm for a couple more mins during my stay there and I don’t really sleep in!). The entire house and listing offered by Erika gives off a very cozy and comfortable feeling. You’ll feel just at home!
3. Verdict:
To keep it short and simple, TLDR:
Do yourself a favour and just choose this listing if you’re a cat lover. There’s NOTHING to complain about with this awesome cozy home!
