This is a nice bright modern two bedroom apartment and is well located right in the heart of Little Italy. We liked the apartment, the furnishings, the full kitchen, nice bathroom, two balconies, and the cleanliness. We especially liked the nearby restaurants, shops and neighbourhoods. The apartment is right on Saint Laurent, a main neighbourhood street, but it is very quiet inside as it is on the top floor at the back of the building.
Nearby great restaurants we discovered were Pastaga, CafeDen, and we loved coffee and homemade Italian pastries each morning right across the street at La Cornetteria. All within walking distance are other great Montreal neighbourhoods like Mile End, Outrement, and Plateau. Little Italy, and these other nearby areas all had tons of great restaurants, shops and neighbourhood streets to explore.
We did have a few minor issues, most of which were resolved. The front door code to the the building changed and did not work on arrival and again a few days later. The host was always available by phone and got us in. We were disappointed that there was no coffee or tea, or any other of the most basic kitchen supplies. But the full kitchen was clean and nicely equipped with pots, pans, and most things one would need, so long as you don't mind having to go grocery shopping for even the most basic amenities like salt, pepper, oil, coffee, tea upon arrival. Everything else we needed for our stay was there, was clean, relatively new, and we were very comfortable.
We would return to stay in this apartment again in the future - it had a lot going for it and only a few relatively minor things that would need to be addressed to make it 5 star.
