We loved that we were able to stay so close to the different activities we wanted to take part in. (It was a short drive to The Botanical Gardens, Mount Royal Park, and Old Montreal.) The neighborhood has many walkable amenities including coffee shops, grocery stores, and restaurants. We enjoyed walking to nearby La Fontaine Park in the evenings. Although we didn't use it, the bus is very close. It was also convenient to have onsite parking, a full kitchen, and AC.
