While visiting family in Montreal, my husband and I settled into this delightful little nest of an apartment for one day less than a week. The brick walls, stone or wood floors, high-end appliances, tv wall, and ample storage space for our clothing, electronics, and food worked together to provide charm. We had everything we needed for the first night. The next day we needed to purchase toilet paper and paper towels and considered looking for a small coffee pot, not knowing how to use the very nice espresso machine. Next time (and there will be a next time) we will know to bring these three items with us.

The large bed is wonderfully comfortable. In an alcove, it is accessed from the foot of the bed.

The entry stairs are tall and steep. I was very glad to have the strong, full-length hand rail.

Our hosts were very communicative and friendly by e-mail and were ready to provide any services we might need. An alternative was immediately provided when we couldn't get the iPad connected to wi-fi. The older lap-top had done just fine.

I would suggest that guests pay attention to the "Guestbook Information" provided by Joanna and Freddie. It is obvious a lot of time was put into compiling valuable information. We had skimmed over the information about parking (free on the street), forgetting we wouldn't be able to read the French language signs. Our farewell gift from the city was a $55 ticket. Even that couldn't dampen the very positive experience we had in the little apartment in a very quiet neighborhood in the grand city of Montreal.
