Sylvie's place was a great landing pad for our very busy stay in Montreal. We were welcomed with an assortment of fresh fruit, croissants, and treats for the kids, and Sylvie had cleared out a storage space for us to park our 4 bikes off the street overnight. The apartment was clean and bright with a nice big kitchen and an in-house washer/dryer which we made good use of. The apartment was half a block away from groceries and an easy walk to train or park. The neighbourhood is central and we mostly walked to our destinations. The ceiling fans in living room and bedroom kept the place nice and cool during the hot weather and we made good use of both front and back patios. Sylvie was a very welcoming and responsive host. It was a pleasure to meet her and to stay in her lovely place in Montreal.
