This was my first experience being a guest on Airbnb and Charles was a good host. He answered my questions and helped me get to where I needed to go. The neighborhood is far from downtown and Old Montreal if you plan to walk, but bus or rental bikes make it easier. There will likely be a few other folks renting a room from Charles during your stay so bring ear plugs for less interrupted sleep and be prepared to wait for the washroom. The shower stall is very small and the bed/pillows quite thin but the price makes it better than a hostel.
