Alexandre's place is great little spot in the city. The neighbourhood is a little louder and more 'up and coming' than others might be, and his street is pretty high-traffic due to the subway, so you really can tell you're in a city when you're there. For some this may be a turn-off, but we rarely get to see when life is like in a city neighbourhood so it was an interesting change from our typical quiet life - and the terrace in the back yard was a great retreat when needed. We had two young kids and an infant there, and it was a good fit for our group, but I don't think we'll be able to go back once the infant is moving around - a young family of four would fit perfectly. An easy walk to the Biodome, a great park and splash pad a few blocks north, great coffee and some nice restaurants on Ontario street two blocks north and east, and the subway stop is in his block so you can get anywhere in the city from there. It's a little off the beaten path, but easy transit links make it a great spot with good value. If my wife and I go back to the city just the two of us, we would definitely stay at Alexandre's place again. Merci!
