Francis's apartment was amazing. The place was super clean and modern with a great outdoor space in the back. It was super sun-filled and had great lighting throughout (all dimmers!) you can tell that they really took care of the place and had pride in the work that was done.
The place is around the corner from Rue Saint Catherine but there was minimal noise at night (we are somewhat sensitive to noise so this was a question when we first arrived). While we didn't really stay in the area during the day, it was very easy to walk or rent a bixi bike in the area and visit other neighborhoods.
Francis was great and offered suggestions for dinner and was overall available if we needed anything.
It was really one of the best apartments we've stayed at.
