This is a lovely little apartment. The kitchen and bathroom are beautifully designed. Keyless access, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and plenty of towels make this place very convenient/comfortable for longer stays. I didn't meet the host, but he responded quickly when I needed a few things upon arrival. It's a bit of a hike from downtown, but easy to catch a bus or take the metro from the Jean Talon stop. The mattress wasn't perfect, so if you're picky, contact the host to see if he has upgraded. I recommended an additional topper. Overall good stay. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
