The apartment looks just like the pictures. It is bright, clean, modern. It was nice to have some basic food items. There is a small supermarket just a block away, in my opinion you don't need to go to a bigger store, unless you're planning on cooking a lot then definitely go to a bigger supermarket.
If you arriving by plane the apartment is perfect since the 747 bus from the airport leaves you 2 blocks away (Gare d'autocars de Montréal) easy to get to/from the airport. The main train station is one block further.
