We had an excellent experience with the studio. It was as advertised - neat, spacious and well equipped and stocked with cooking basics. The area is convenient to attractions, restaurants and grocery stores. We are walkers and were able to walk to the Musée des beaux-arts or Vieux Port in 45 minutes. Buses run in front of the studio and get to these area in 20-25 minutes. We had a dog and found the dirt sections along the sidewalk and nearness to Mont Royal very useful. Having a parking spot was a real bonus (although tough to navigate with a full-sized car). Avenue du Park is a busy, noisy street, but it was pretty quiet in the evenings so didn't disturb sleeping. Highly recommended.
