Being myself from Montreal, I knew the location was a winner! On St-Laurent (Montreal's main street) and close to 2 of the most posh streets of the city, it was perfect to show my Italian husband everything that makes Montreal so exciting: good food, good music, cool little shops, and the Mountain practically just around the corner. We call it a "mountain"...but it's a wonderful hill, great for walks, sledding, snowshoeing, skating!
I actually chose France's flat because of the way it is decorated, and because of the painting above the bed. It is as you see it on the pictures, cool, laid back, and real quiet! The kitchen is big and well equipped. We had a wonderful time, and wouldn't hesitate to rent it again! And France is a great host.
