I would definitely recommend Nader's place and I will stay here again next time I am in Montreal. It is a perfect location and a good price. Nader was there to welcome me when I arrived and always quickly responded to questions. The room was bigger than I expected. It contained a single bed, closet, table and 2 chairs, a desk and kitchenette with coffee maker, fridge, microwave and toaster. Nader helped me get free parking in the street right out front. The room is no frills but on a quiet street close to everything - Rue St Catherine, Metro station, La Fontaine Park, St Denis and very close to old Montreal and the Quartier Des Spactacles. I brought my bike and locked it to a lamppost and I was able to get everywhere I wanted to go without needing to drive the whole time I was there. Location is close to bars, cafes and restaurants. Bathrooms are shared in the hallway and consist of two toilets in separate rooms and a shower in another separate little room. I rarely saw any other guests. My room had a small window and a small door leading to the fire escape that I would open to let in fresh air when I was there. I visited in August and it was warm but not too hot.
