We spent a very nice week here. The unit was super clean, and in a great location. We could explore the Plateau/Mont Royal and Mile End in one direction, and Downtown/Old Montreal in the other. We were there during the Jazz Festival, and the Quartier des Spectacles was an easy walk. Mont-Royal Park is also close. There are several places to eat or drink nearby. The parking lot around the corner (on Prince Arthur) was easy and cheap. The hosts were communicative. Overall, we found it a very good place from which to explore the city.
