I have stayed in many Airbnb's around the world (20+) and my experience with Alex is one of the absolute best.
Host: Alex is very communicative when you are booking the trip, before the trip, after check in, and after check in. He provided all the details we need to know about his listing, the area, and helped us figure out where to store our luggage after check out for the day.
The space: Extremely well kept, clean with fresh sheets and linens. It has everything needed (utensils, fridge, towels, hairdryer, hygiene products). The wifi was excellent. Most of all, the place is spacious and beautifully decorated - exactly like the photos which I was so excited about! :) The house is the second level of a Montreal style home with an outdoor spiral staircase so it might not be the best for those who have difficulty walking/moving.
The neighborhood: We loved the area of this home. It is in a beautiful Francophone area with lots of cafes, restaurants around, and a grocery store down the street where we got snacks and juices each day. The metro is 10 min by walking (Laurier station) but we walked most of the time.
Overall I had a fantastic stay in this beautiful home and definitely recommend the host and his listing for your visit! Thanks Alex!
