I booked this place for my husband and I as we were going to a music festival (Ilesoniq) nearby at Parc Jean Drapeau and it was amazing. The subway station was on our street, 2 blocks away, and 1 stop from the festival so it was incredibly convenient.
The hosts were super friendly - I got several messages from them checking in before, during, and after our stay. Based on what I've read, these seem to be automated messages so I didn't really respond much. Before I checked in though, I asked about parking and the host shared info on a third-party garage about a block away. Everything went well with that. I think it was about $23 CAD per day.
Entering the building, I was initially a little worried since the outside and lobby area of the building look a bit old but our stay was great - check-in was super easy. The listing looked exactly as pictured and everything was clean. The shower pressure was quite good and the air conditioner worked perfectly. They have shampoo dispensers in the shower and provided a bunch of shower gel, which was a nice touch. I didn't realize it until I got there but there is a mini refrigerator, microwave, and Nespresso machine which came in handy.
The area itself was awesome. From where we are to the Berri-Uqam subway station, the ~2 blocks or so are pedestrian only and completely lined with restaurants and bars (indoor and outdoor). It was so lively - we could often hear & see live music as we walked by. There is also a convenience store right by the station which was helpful.
At night, people seemed to stay up super late and our street was be full of young people going out on Friday and Saturday nights. There were lots of late-night food and bar options as well as a 24-hour McDonalds down the street. As loud and lively as the street was, surprisingly, we couldn't hear anything when we got back to our room. Maybe because the rooms are further back in the building.
We were also a few minutes away from the Sherbrooke station as well and ended up taking that line a couple times too.
I did have a similar experience as others with the wifi being a bit slow at times, but it wasn't too bad - for the most part it worked fine. It would just be slow at some times.
Overall, the stay was great. I would stay here again and recommend this place to friends.
