The location of the apartment is excellent, you are in the heart of the Mile End on St. Laurent and can easily access a variety of shops, restaurants, and neighborhoods. There are multiple Bixi stations close by. The apartment is spacious and clean. The only downside is that since you are located on St. Laurent you will hear a fair amount of noise on the street which was an issue for my partner who is a very light sleeper. Would have been nice if the apartment had other amenities such as a hairdryer and iron. The communication with the host was great and she always responded promptly and helped us with any questions.
