Our host did a great job of making us feel welcome. She took the time to show us around the apartment and explain everything, there were stuffed animals for children, and she had put folded towels with chocolate on top at the bottom of our bed. She had a lot of guides for attractions in and around Montréal for guests who were interested in sightseeing, and she had provided a bounty of cooking ware and utensils for guests who were interested in cooking their own meals. Staying in this listing is like being given the keys to a cute bed and breakfast and having the whole thing for yourself. This listing is in a residential area that is walkable to shopping, but not super convenient to downtown (it is about fifteen minute drive, or a bus to the metro). We were staying there with our six and seven year-old children, so the comfort of both the house and the area more than made up for not being central. Those who are not traveling with children may feel differently. Being able to park our cars here instead of fighting for street parking was a treat, as was being convenient to a park with a playground. We would definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in Montréal again.
