Location is great - easy walk to Mont Royal, Bell Center, restaurants, shops (old Montreal is a bit of a hike). The unit itself is bare bones and was definitely constructed and furnished on a tight budget. One of the windows was "sealed" closed with dozens of pieces of duct tape - allowing cold air and city noise into the apartment at all hours. Coffee table was beat up, window blinds were missing on one of the bedroom windows. Would stay again if it were cheaper - safe area, good location, clean, easy check-in, responsive host, but host/owner needs to spend some money and fix the place up. Considering the cost, the meager maintenance and furnishing of the unit left us wanting more.
