The photos that you see paint a picture that is slightly rosier than reality. Ask the host for confirmation before you book to make sure things like coffee are included or if the laundry machines are fully functioning. All in all it is a well equipped if somewhat spartan BnB that is walking distance from a bunch of shops, and Italian bistros on Jean-Talon. Street parking was easy to find nearby at any hour. Air conditioning is excellent but it is a wall mounted unit by the entry door, so your bedroom doors will have to stay open at night if you want cool air. There aren’t many places to put your clothes if you prefer to unpack vs living out of your suitcase. The price was definitely more affordable than many other spots in Montreal.
