Kate's clean and beautifully decorated studio apartment was the perfect location to explore Montreal via the nearby Laurier metro station as well as a 2 minute walk to a grocery store at the end of Rue Chambord. About half hour from YUL airport, taxi ~60 CD. (allow more time if roads are closed due to snow) We loved walking to the Brulerie Saint-Denis daily for coffee & scones, dining, & shopping in this neighborhood. Local residents & store employees are so nice and helpful! A metro transfer would take you shopping downtown at the Montreal Eaton Centre, visit sites in Old Montreal, Chinatown, museums, the Biodome, Insectarium, etc. Kate is friendly and offers tips for dining, activities. If you have any questions, her response is very prompt via the Airbnb site. While shampoo, conditoner, bath gel, soap, shower cap, dryer are provided, the heated bathroom floor is very cozy!
