The front room of Sandra's place is good for a solo traveler who just needs a place to crash. The location is great, with many restaurants etc close by, though it is several blocks from the subway. The room is small and a bit cluttered, but the bed is comfortable and the air conditioning works well--important even in Montreal in the summer. The bathroom is at the back of the house, but I had adequate privacy. Don't come expecting luxury--this is a modest home that feels very much lived in.
