My friends and I stayed at the apartment September4-13, 2014. We were on training that week and to be close to the Moksha studio on St. Laurent boulevard. Amy and Atiq are incredible organizers and terrific hosts. They helped us with the reservation process and answered all our questions in a timely and detailed manner before we made our final booking. Amy met us at the apartment and walked us through the flat to make sure we understood how everything worked. They checked in with us frequently by text and always answered our questions quickly and kindly. The space is bright, airy and cheery. It was very clean and had everything you could possibly think of, cooking utensils, cleaning supplies and fans too. The beds were clean and comfortable, and the couches make comfy beds as well. There is a binder full
of ideas and suggestions to make your visit to Montreal even better. The apartment is located on a back street but St. Laurent and Sherbrooke at are only steps away and St. Denis and St. Catherines are close by as well. Bixie bikes, Restaurants, cafes, grocery stores, shopping, and nightlife are within walking distance. WE enjoyed Brioche Dore for croissants and Darbar for Indian cuisine. Since it is located in a popular section of town it can be a bit noisy so you might hear people living it up on warm summer nights. However, the apartment is very safe with good locks and private window coverings. At ground level it was a perfect, cool hideaway for the humid nights. The garden is gorgeous too. A lovely spot to breathe, relax and take in the Montreal wildlife (birds and squirrels). When I come back to Montreal, I will definitely check with Amy and Atiq to see if their place is available.
