My girlfriend and I really enjoyed our stay here over the last four months. The location was amazing. Restaurants, parks and grocery stores are all in walking distance. The place instantly felt like home. Everything was pretty clean. Wifi was consistent.
The place definitely has character! The kitchen is slightly slanted and the the backdoor only opens a foot and a half. The building is very old and so you have to expect that not everything will work perfectly. However, Maya is an excellent landlord. She lives a minute away and is willing to help with anything you need, whether that be related to the apartment or general help getting around the city.
I did notice that as someone from outside Montreal, parking was frustrating. There was only street parking which was limited. We encountered an actual issue finding a spot a handful of times but due to street cleaning and construction we had to move the car constantly.
Overall, our stay was enjoyable and we would highly recommend it.
