Mariane is very responsive and accommodating. Apartment is as shown on pictures and location is indeed central, with easy access to groceries, restaurants, parcs, etc.
With typical Montreal apartment charm come usual Montreal quirks one should know about though. An NSF certified water filter pitcher is provided as there is presence of the lead in the tap water. You can easily hear the neighbors on both sides; they are both young families though so there are no issues with late night noise. The apartment is also close to a high school. Finally the staircase tends to accumulate smelly odors (in my case a skunk smell that came from outside and lingered for days).
But all in all a good home base for a long term stay in Montreal!
