My family had wonderful weekend in Montreal at Alain's place! The apartment was clean and spacious (especially for a city apartment). Alain was a pleasure to work with--with extremely fast responses and helping answer any questions we had!
There is street parking surrounding the apartment building, but most of it is permit parking only or has relatively high hourly rates (for an extended stay). There are not many open lots in the general vicinity and the ones we found were closed on the weekends. We got creative with the meters and parking downtown daily for sightseeing, but overall, the parking situation was a bit stressful.
Additionally, other reviews mentioning noise were accurate. We couldn't decipher where it was coming from, but there was loud, distant music playing well into the night (til at least 3am). We were shocked the neighbors can be that loud without getting into trouble.
If you can handle a some noise, we had a great stay and would highly recommend!
