Claude was very friendly and helpful, we got to meet her on the second or third day when she brought by some supplies, and she was able to tell me some of the history of my last name (which is originally from Quebec). The location was perfect for walking and close to metro station for when we wanted to ride. The kitchen was great -- we really loved being able to go to the local markets, bring food back to the apartment and prepare it ourselves. We would definitely stay there again and have already recommended it to friends.
