This studio apartment more than met our expectations. It was warm and inviting, decorated extremely tastefully, and was just a beautiful space. Everything in the photographs lived up to the reality. Marilou also provided little flourishes, like stocking the refrigerator with eggs, cheese, fruit, and yogurt for breakfast and provided bread and croissants for us, free of charge. My husband and I slept wonderfully on the Tempurpedic mattress that was provided (which was a major selling point for me initially), and Marilou provided us with bicycles free of charge which we used to bike down to the wonderful Atwater market and neighborhood. We definitely recommend Marilou's studio, and have already done so to friends and family that are contemplating a future trip to Montreal.
