Mary and Jim's place is lovely and very spacious! It has all you need, very modern, warm in winter and was sparkling clean. We came to love the location and found lots of great shops 10-15mins walk away. There are lots of buses around and although the metro station is about a 15 minute walk, once you're on its very easy and quick to get anywhere. We didn't meet Mary and Jim but they were easy to communicate with. I would recommend their wonderful place to anyone who wants a home away from home in Montreal.
