Normally I do not make reviews if we are not at the extremes (good or bad), and fortunately this time we are on the sunny side of the street. I am a frequent business traveler and if I have to stay for one week or so, I prefer to have “a place called home”.
I use frequently Airbnb and other platforms and I know quite well Montreal (almost 20 years). I have to say that Evan, up to now, is one of my top 3 Host. Moreover, the apartment is very well situated in one of the best spots in Montreal, is spacious and has a character. If you come to Montreal for a few days, you might spend two days without moving from here, between the park of Mont-Royal, the plateau area, Little Italy and so on. Actually, to be honest, the apartment is much better than in the photos, because with the photos you are missing the global vision of the apartment. It is perfect for a couple, but I think to rent it also when I will come with my kids.
If you like jazz, one of the best jazz bars in town, the Diese Onze, is 5 minutes walking, as some of the real Montreal spots to eat and visit, as Schwartz for the smoked meat and the bagels of St Viateur (don’t miss the possibility to buy warm bagels and eat them on the top of Mont-Royal).
