Enjoyed our stay with Julie. The cleanliness of the room was impeccable, common areas such as kitchen could be improved. Bathroom is open to one side so it lacks in privacy. Private entrance might come in handy when one is being out late. Room itself has nice interior with charakter and a comfy bed. Price too high for a private offer though but Montreal seems to be quite on the expensive side in general.
Major downside of our stay: Information about free parking should've been better. Both sides of the roads are cleaned on certain days of the week so you might have to move your car. We followed Julie's advice to move it on the other side of the road because of the days we were staying. Next day they started some construction on the opposite side of the house so we had to move it a little bit up the road. What we didn't know/see, they cleaned this area of the road at a different time range as well. Definitely check the signs thoroughly and knowing some basic French helps too :)
To make it short, we are now stuck with a $86 parking ticket what makes our 2 day stay bloody expensive and leaves a bad aftertaste.
