I'm an easily spooked traveler so this was exactly what I needed: clean, safe, cheerful, private, well cared for, and homey (plus a great price!) You can tell someone's put care and pride into how it's laid out and maintained. It's convenient to the Plateau & Mile End and though it's on a thoroughfare, the room is at the back of the building so there's no street noise. Street parking is a little tricky due to resident permits, but Julia was able to pass on helpful info about how to purchase guest passes. I would just allow yourself a little time to get sorted in that department. Generally though, I'm excited to come back!
