PRO:
Great location. Right across the street from a park with lots of other playground structures nearby that my two year old could play in. Atwater market within walking distance, as well as lots of other restaurants right around the corner. About a 15-20 minute drive to Old Montreal and Downtown. Did not take bus/subway so cannot comment on that.
The place is very clean, which was greatly appreciated. The kitchen was well stocked with supplies to cook with. The communication was fantastic as well. Two bathrooms, one very spacious with a large walk in shower and tub. The other had a small standing shower that is very functional for average sized people but would likely not fit a large person very well. The mirror was also very high up. Perhaps an NBA player could see their face in the mirror, but for me it was just pretty to look at. Not a big deal, as there are various other mirrors throughout that I was able to use. There was no counter space at all in the second bathroom so we moved a side table from the hallway into the bathroom, which worked very well.
CON:
We don't mind steps, which is a prerequisite if you're going to stay here, but the angle of the steps were very steep. Just not something that we are used to and would avoid during the winter when there is a chance of snow/ice. Other than that, it was lovely.
