A wonderful location just a few minutes walk from the metro, biodome, botanical gardens, planetarium, etc. It is easy to get to from the highway by car or downtown by metro. The house was clean and very open. It had a very nice kitchen area and a backyard. A great place for a family with a small child or a couple looking for a quite neighborhood. This is not a tourist area so you get to see what it feels like to actually live in the city. Knowing some French is very helpful. Our host was very helpful and responsive. In addition to a small number of restaurants in walking distance there were a number of nice parks. Our favorite was Parc Morgan with lots of water features and play spaces. We really enjoyed our trip!
