Amanda and her family have a great place that delivers the promise "Home like your home". You feel priviledged to use their home like your home: everything was clean, great and practical. Amanda was also very reactive and quick in helping when we had questions, great feeling to have when you travel abroad.The Mile End suburb is delightful, you feel "real life" in Montreal: lots of small shops, stores and bars/restaurant everywhere. No need for a car: walk to the metro station is only 10/12 minutes then you are 5/10' from heart of downtown. You can also walk 15' to the famous Mont Royal Parc and enjoy nature right away. In short, ideal place to stay in Montreal for a family (we were 2 adults + 3 teenagers).
