I was visiting our Montreal office, which is in the neighborhood. For a cold week, this was a great find, as it was only a 10 minute walk door-to-door. Kevin keeps a very clean, nice place, with good towels and sheets, coffee and tea in the kitchen, and pretty much everything I needed for the week. There's a nice gas fire that I hung close to in the evenings, but that was just for coziness...the flat seemed well insulated and I was comfortable throughout my stay.
Point St Charles is not the most neighborhoodish of neighborhoods (fairly empty of restaurants, cafes, shops and so on), but factor that into your thinking and this place is really a good deal.
Some local notes:
- Had excellent meals at Fugazzi and Miel – both on Centre St – where the food was great and the staff friendly.
- There's a nearby rock climbing gym which I sadly only discovered on my last day!
All in, highly recommended.
