We spent 2 months during summer in this apartment and I can tell you it is a hidden gem in the village! It has an AMAZING GARDEN which makes it totally worth it and different than any regular downtown apartment. Although it is not very central in terms of location (compared to downtown), it is very well surrounded. There is a pharmaprix just next to it and many “dépanneurs” as well as some good restaurants/coffee places. It is at walking distance from the famous rue st catherine. The apartment is exactly as it shows in the pictures and sylvain is a SUPER HOST and lives right next door and was very helpful/available for any request. We really felt at home. I can’t predict how it would be during the harsh winter but I definitely recommend it for summer. The only 2 improvements that can potentially be made are:
- the AC unit is a portable one and is extremely loud (you can’t sleep).
- the wifi signal does not cover the full apartment and internet connection is not that great (but after I told sylvain he directly placed a repeater inside the apartment).
