We enjoyed staying at Denis’s apartment, which was the perfect size for a couple, and had everything we needed for our 9 day stay in Montreal.
We walked around the neighbourhood most days, visiting various local parks, shops and cafes, and the wonderful botanic gardens.
While the apartment is a fair way from the central city, there is an abundance of public transport, as well as the bixi bike hire service. We certainly didn’t need a car.
Denis is a friendly and helpful host. He provided us with lots of detailed guidance prior to our visit.
