We've stayed in many Airbnbs with host living in, and Shane and Francisco are definitely the best and warmest hosts we've ever met. We felt the hospitality from the very beginning, through the last moment of our stay. During our first night arrival, maybe because I mentioned luggages, Shane offered us a ride from the metro to their place. Soon then he gave us lots of restaurant recommendations and detailed suggestions for the second day plan, which is super warm!
The second night when we got back, Shane and Francisco even invited us to enjoy their wine night. We had a very nice conversation, from history to cultures between Canada, US, France, and Taiwan. It was a truly wonderful Airbnb experience.
The house itself is very well decorated and equipped, the pictures can not show the full beauty and comfiness of the space. Shane told us many of the furnitures are from different countries where he lived before, which is lovely and full of stories. The bed in the guest room is very spacious and comfy, it has a memory foam on top of the mattress, which makes it soft but also firm from the bottom.
Shane's place is located in a tranquil neighborhood, which is only 5-7 mins walk to the metro. It's also easy to go to lots of attractions. My wife and I enjoyed the stay very much! we definitely will book again if we come back to Montreal. Can't recommend Shane's place more!
