We had an amazing time this past weekend in Montreal, and staying at Sophie's place was a big part of what made it so great. Sophie contacted me ahead of time asking if there was anything specific that she could help with recommendation wise and she was quick to respond with useful tips. Upon arrival we also found books full of great suggestions for us.

The home was big, clean, and beautiful. Located right across the street from a nice park and within walking distance of good food and coffee shops. We really enjoyed the neighborhood, it was calm and full of friendly families. We were also able to find parking on the street easily.

The main tourist attractions are a bit further away but we found that we could get everywhere we wanted either by walking, taking a short cab/uber trip, or hopping on a BIxi bike. There are Bixi bike station on each end of the park and also everywhere around the city. Just make sure you read the rules before taking one out to avoid getting overcharged. There is also a great public transit system, we just never had the need to take it.

If we find ourselves back in Montreal anytime soon I will be hoping to stay here again. It was wonderful!
