Very well maintained and clean home. Kitchen and dining areas were spacious and included all the important things you need to cook and clean. Bedrooms were clean and well suited for our group. House is also well situated for everyday needs, including variety store across street, grocery store, liquor store and small restaurants all within 5min walk. Access to Montreal downtown and other landmarks is by cab (typically 5-10min). Only drawbacks to the house were short ceilings in basement, could be a slight inconvenience if your over 6ft tall. Also there is no full air conditioning system (space coolers and fans only). Otherwise Helene was an incredible host, check in was easy and fast and she provided support whenever required. Would defiantly be looking to stay here again on future Montreal visits.
