Kathryn is an incredibly considerate host and her place is cosy and calm. I stayed with Kathryn after a long and gruelling conference and I really appreciated her concern to make sure my stay was peaceful and restorative. The location itself is great for exploring buzzy St-Laurent, chic Mont-Royal and for walks on Mount Royal itself. It's also about 10 mins walk to the cafés of the Mile End, but one of the best (Café Myriade) is right on your doorstep. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if I'm in town.
