Helene's place is located pretty central to everything, within 15 min drive to all the major attractions we wanted to see. She has organized her place really well, with lots of utensils/amenities (pots and pans and anything you might need to cook while during her stay). What I really loved was the little binder full of suggestions, all organized into various categories (i.e. bakeries within walking distance, food within walking distance) etc. Even though we came prepared, we still used some of her suggestions. Its an older house but barely creaks compared to other places - every room had its own thermostat to control the heat. Every room was decorated with simple yet antique-ish decor which really allowed us to take in the Montreal culture. I am not even going to look for other airbnbs when I come back to Montreal - this place was perfect.
