I had a great stay this studio. The location is fantastic, extremely central, and very walkable to lots of great areas. I will say it is 'lively', this isn't an issue for me, but know that if you're planning to stay here, there is some street noise audible on weekends (the studio faces away from the street and wasn't noisy per se, but you will hear a bit). The building itself (staircase, hallways) show their age a bit but the studio has been nicely redone. Kitchen appliances are minimal as well but there is so many great food options literally right outside the door. I definitely recommend this studio for a solo traveller looking to explore Montreal or planning to get out and enjoy the city.
