The hosts not only provided a stylishly beautiful and comfortable place, but gave just the right balance (for me!) between warm attentiveness and considered privacy. The apartment is in a fascinating part of Outremont, which lended a richness to the stay. Their guestbook includes a long, detailed list of special local places to check out. Located on a tree-lined quiet street, we would move between the front and back balconies to watch the neighborhood kids play. The beds are very comfortable with luxury sheets, and plush towels to wrap in after a wholesome shower. Great expresso coffee maker. There is even a portable confessional, on which sits a thriving, happy plant.
