Overall, this was a great spot for a quick visit to Montreal to visit family. While not in an area most tourists visiting the city will think to stay, the neighborhood is wonderful and gives you a real sense of Montreal.
The space is exactly as depicted in the listing and is great for a couple or solo-traveler. Parking was a breeze, and the check-in/out process was simple.
We did have some trouble finding the apartment - it’s located on the second floor and the building number was not easy to see from the street. When I tried calling Juliet on the number she left, there was no answer and she didn’t call back. Luckily we found some helpful neighbors who pointed us in the right direction.
We happened to be staying in the city during a record-setting cold front (seriously, it was -22C) and the heat in the apartment wasn’t the best - it would have been nice to have some instructions on how to operate the thermostat.
We couldn’t figure out how to operate the computer/TV system despite the instructions that were left (no way to change the input as far as we could tell).
Lastly, the upstairs neighbors were REALLY loud. I’m from NYC and accustomed to lots of noise when sleeping - I am almost never bothered by noise but I was woken up at 3 am to loud banging that sounded like it was in the bedroom. I would not recommend the apartment to light sleepers or travelers with small children. And if you do stay there, remember your ear plugs!
All of that being said, I would definitely return to the apartment for another short stay - the convenience of the location, the cleanliness, and the space itself trump any downsides.
