I arrived in Montreal from Paris at the tail end of hurricane Sandy and the weather was atrocious - windy, cold and raining. Luckily, there was an umbrella in the suite which I used as I trudged through the streets of the Plateau battling wind and rain. I bought food from various different places (there's a huge selection of shops nearby) and what a relief it was to return to the cozy studio which was warm and welcoming. The bed has silky sheets and was very comfortable. I appreciated the beverages in the fridge and the delicious coffee and coffee-maker. Because of the bad weather I was unable to appreciate the little garden area in front but will return during a warmer season to do so.
