Joe's place has been renovated recently and everything inside looks new. We stayed for three weeks, we had everything inside to prepare meals since we didn't go or order restaurant food every day.
The location is not central but there's a grocery store and a pharmacy at the corner and a few restaurants on the street nearby.
Several bus stops around go downtown (104, 138, 420) if you don't have a car.
It's an anglophone neighborhood, if you don't speak French you'll be fine :)
Joe is very quick to answer, we had a curtain not working and he sent someone to fix it the same day although we told him it's no big deal.
Great stay overall!
