We really enjoyed our stay at Emmanuel's place. The decor was peaceful and charming. Check-in/out and communication with Emmanuel were all very easy. Most of all, the location was perfect for our needs. It was terrific to be able to walk to everything we needed in Le Plateau and Mile-End (including amazing food everywhere you turned) as well as to have easy access to Bixi bike stands for getting around more widely (while also having a parking space since we drove into town). Would love to return!
