Dave's place is in an excellent location! We loved being close to Rue Sainte-Catherine with so much shopping, restaurants, and museums all within walking distance. The apartment is furnished nicely and you could tell Dave spent time with the interior decor. I would compare it to a 3-star hotel, very clean with attractive furnishings, however, don't expect granite countertops. Dave responds very quickly to any concerns, and dropped off a few missing items, which was wonderful.
Don't be fooled by the building, three cement steps in front of the building are missing and wooden boards replace them. The stairwell leading up to his apartment could use some sprucing up (although that is the landlords responsibility, not Dave's). That being said and since I now know what I am getting, I would definitely stay here again!
FYI, the apartment is on the 3rd floor with no elevator.
