Mikael's place is in a superb location in the hip Plateau neighborhood in Montreal near oodles of boutiques, bars, and restaurants. I was convinced that the photographs were taken with a wide angle lens, but the apartment is actually just as spacious and lovely as it appears in the pictures! The bed was extremely comfortable with high quality linens and bed dressings, and the window treatments kept the light out so that I could sleep late. The towels are of nice quality and the shower pressure was excellent.

I found the place to be very quiet despite the busyness of St. Denis street. The building has an elevator, which was great given the amount of luggage my friend and I had with us! Communication was easy; all questions were answered promptly, and retrieval and returning of the keys was a piece of cake.

The deck is a lovely place to spend time. Other small but important details include the lovely lighting throughout, the comfortable air conditioning, and the availability of closet and drawer space, in case you hate living out of a suitcase as I do.

An overall fabulous stay. Upon future returns to Montreal, I will not bother looking for any other place if Mikael's is available. I have no complaints!
