This is a lovely and cozy apartment with everything you might need during your stay! The neighborhood is very quiet (great if you need to do some work from home), but it's only about 20 min or so to take public transport downtown, so it's really the best of both worlds. There's a lovely park/trail along the water about 1 km down the street -- I went for a walk there almost every day. It's an absolutely beautiful spot to bike, walk, picnic, or just hang out.
Alexandre is also a fabulous host -- extremely welcoming and great with communication, both before, during, and after my stay. He responded within minutes when I accidentally locked myself out and was so quick to come to my rescue!
If you need a place to spend a few months in Montreal (especially with a quiet workspace), this Verdun apartment is perfect. You won't regret it!
