I stayed with Max for the month of January 2022. I was stranded in Montreal because my flight abroad was cancelled. I do not speak French. Max is fluent in both French and English. The room I stayed in has a balcony- nice. Everything you need is within walking distance from his home, groceries, drug store, and other shops. The Metro is very close. He has two marvellous cats that I adored. It is a very quiet street and home. I enjoyed my stay with Max very much.
