We were two small families including grandma, and the apt was more than spacious and accommodating Pictures are reflective of the lovely decor, and the kitchen had every appliance you could possibly need. There was even a nice sized laundry room with new washer and dryer! For our kids the location was key: a short stroll to the Biodome, and Insectarium, and for the adults, a few minutes drive to your pick of grocery stores and a small main strip of cute restaurants and bars. Other than that it was only even ten or fifteen minutes to visit other tourist attractions including Old Montreal, and Mile End, etc. The building itself is being renovated it looks like, but the apt. is very much up to date. Parking was a breeze as long as you know your days of the week in French, and part of the fun for some of us to dust off our middle school French vocabulary :-)
