Small but adequate apartment. The photos advertised appear to be quite old, as the paint is peeling and the walls are quite battered. Apparently Hochelaga isn’t the greatest neighbourhood, so we tried not to walk through it at night, but we found it was quite safe during the day.
We encountered some issues with supplies/furnishings and cleanliness, but Philippe was quick to remedy the situation as best he could, which was very much appreciated. We had to fix the problems ourselves, though.
There’s also two flights of narrow stairs to get to the apartment that aren’t advertised (one outside, one inside) so those with accessibility issues would have difficulty getting in. Air conditioning and heating comes from a single portable unit, so you can only heat/cool one room at a time. Also, the couch is just a couch, not a hide-a-bed.
It’s a good apartment for the price, but we were disappointed by some false advertising that made it out to be better than it was.
