What a beautiful home, in such a great, convenient location. We traveled with about 7 family members in total, and we needed a lot of bedrooms, along with well-appointed common areas, and Helene's property was just perfect. The kitchen is the hub of the house and there is so much seating, great appliances and appointments. There are lots of great markets and cafes right in the neighbourhood, We rented a car to get around town so the inclusion of a parking spot was welcome (as such, I don't have much insight to offer with regard to public transportation - we didn't use it! ). A wonderful stay, and I would encourage any large groups of travellers to Montreal to consider it as their home base.
