I shared this entire beautiful house with a couple of friends August 2012. The description provided by our host was exactly as described. I have to say the pictures can not portray how gorgeous the home is. Check in and communication with the host was simply a breeze and joy. The location is excellent. There is a grocer/market right around the block and a convenience store right across the street if you want some late night snacks. The metro stop is a few blocks away which was very convenient. If you bring a car do put it in parking garage as there is only residential parking in this area. I highly recommend this unit to anyone wishing to visit Montreal. Thanks to Maryline for being such an excellent host!
