This is a really stunning unit and after staying here for over a week I really can't believe we got it for the rate we did. It's so perfectly located for walking all over Montreal and it's so clean and spacious and nice that it really feels like home while you're there. We had such a good time in Montreal that we'll definitely be back and we'll definitely be staying here again if it's available. Having a parking space in the bag was HUGELY helpful for us traveling for an extended stay and not wanting to have to deal with street parking. We did not need to use them but it looked like the washer and dryer were also brand new and very nice quality.
We did make a few notes of just minor improvements that could be made but none of these are enough to not keep this rental five stars.
- It was a bit unsettling not receiving check-in info until the day of arrival. Given how many fake AirBnBs are out there now we were worried it might have been a scam. As a host myself I understand some people may prefer delaying providing this info for security reasons, but the day-of is REALLY late in the industry..
- The condo really needs an air purifier in the bedroom and possibly in the main living area as well. Almost every day we were there both of the other 2 units in the building were smoking marijuana (legal in MTL) and the smell is so strong it's really difficult to sleep or even think. I don't make any personal judgments about people who smoke but as someone who doesn't it's really bothersome to have to experience this and have nowhere to escape it.
- Water pressure in the shower really needs to be adjusted. It's not really high enough to feel clean and just kind of dribbles. Doesn't seem to be a problem elsewhere.
Again no deal breakers just some things that would make an already fantastic rental space next level. For the very affordable price these are all acceptable compromises as is.
