The appartment is on Richmond street in Griffintown which is a 'hip' young area of Mohntreal. The appartment is small but has all the basic including coffeee and tea. It has 2 double beds and 1 sofa bed. the sofa bed is NOT confortable at all. The 2 beds are OK. The appartment is quite new and clean and bedding are clean. Our apartment was on 3rd floor and although there is a bar on the ground floor that has lound music playing at night, we did not hear any noise from our appartment.
If you are coming with a car, then there is NO packing on the premise or on the streeet. You would have to walk 12 minutes to get to the closest parking lot (we use the 'Arbora') where there are constructions beside it (new condo construction digging, etc.). So not convenient in the winter time having to walk 12 minutes in the cold and at night to/from your parking.
Also the company is a pretty big worlwide company renting out appartments and their automated communication when checking in and etc. is pretty good. HOWEVER, if you think that you would need some flexibility by asking changes or cancellation then you would not have any weight to ask for it at all! When I call the company from Montreal, the company is run from London UK.
Please NOTE that the company also ask for copy of official ID document such as your driver licence or passport and also pictures of yourself via a sophiscated online system (so you cannot just send them normal copy of these documents as they will scan it and verify if your pictures correspond to that on the official document etc.). Airbnb said the company is entitle to ask these information according to local or/and building regulations.
There is a 24 hrs gym at the appartment as advertised but we were told by the front desk person on site that guess to the building are not allowed to use the gym. Only residents of the building are allowed to use it.
The main lobby is under renovation currently so we had to enter from the side of the building.
Hope that these information would help you to decide on the choice of your appartment.
