Lance's place was perfect for our month in Montreal. We chose it because it was big enough for us to entertain friends and have overnight guests. We were certainly not disappointed; the place is big, bright and very well appointed, with good quality furnishings and appliances throughout. The Ghost Signs add a unique touch as well. The outside deck is large, attractive and well equipped with a BBQ and seating for lots of guests.

Lance is the perfect Airbnb host: he was available to answer questions while respecting our privacy. Transportation was easy with a monthly transit pass, with the Metro only a few minutes by bus from the front door. Shopping for food, wine/beer and other necessities is all within a couple of blocks and there must be a dozen cafes within a few minute's walk. We particularly enjoyed the Asian, Indian and Greek choices. But keep in mind that Montreal is great for nightlife but many cafes and pubs are not open for lunch, so we had to go a bit further afield a few times. If you have a problem with stairs I would recommend the lower unit, since there is a steep two-story climb to Unit 1, but we got used to it. The lower unit has better access to the outside deck but its not quite as convenient to the laundry room. Rosa and I would certainly rent the top unit again.
