There were 3 of us staying in Montreal for a scientific conference at the Place De Arms convention center for 6 days. This location is 4 stops away on the underground metro line which takes you there in 7 min exactly (I timed it at different times of the day). Its a 100 meters walk to the Mt Royal metro station and the neighborhood is bustling. There is a bar and a good thai restaurant directly below Amelle's place but the noise never bothered us. The only issue someone might have is that it's a 4 bed 1 bath. We were 3 people who spend less than 5 min in the bathroom at any given time so it didnt bother us. Also the mount royal neighborhood has tons of wonderful bakeries (one is only 30 meters away). Additionally one of the most famous poutine places (La Banquise) is nearby (about 3 blocks away). I highly recommend this place and Amelle to anyone visiting Montreal.
