This is a very cute apartment right in the thick of things between Place Des Arts, Chinatown, Old Montreal, downtown and more. The location is excellent for people who want to explore the more urban parts of Montreal. The apartment is comfy and cozy and in an historic building nestled amid skyscrapers and hotels. I enjoyed being around the corner from the trendy La Finca Café and the amazing Peruvian-Chinese restaurant La Chifa. While parking is a challenge in this part of the city, there are actually four unmetered spots at the end of the block that do not require a permit, so if you are lucky, as we were twice, you can snag one of those and park for free (just make sure to move it for an hour on street cleaning days).
