Excellent hosts and great apartment for a comfortable stay in Montréal. Yaneisy, who was born in Cuba, is trilingual(French/Spanish/English) and welcomed us in person and graciously helped us get our luggage in, and showed me where to park behind the apartment. She always responded to our inquiries within a few hours, and Alan(native French Canadian/some bilinguality in Spanish/English too) also helped us at one point. The Hochelaga-Maisonnneuve neighborhood is undergoing a lot of gentrification and redevelopment, and there are multiple specialty shops and grocery shops within walking distance from the apartment. From the rooftop of the apartment building, you can see the city's Olympic Stadium and part of downtown. Downtown Montréal is a 10 minute drive, or you can take a bus or the metro a few blocks away from the apartment, or take an Uber.
