The room was incredibly clean and spacious and matched the description very well. Bo was thorough in showing us the house and all the amenities and hospitable in her offer to share food/drinks/cooking utensils, etc if we wanted. The house was good, and pretty private, and on a quiet residential street close to a lot of cafes and restaurants and a metro station. All in all, a very cute place and very good value.

The only downsides are the parking situation, which we had no idea about - our visit to Montreal was totally different and we're from the US. There is NO parking in residential areas without a permit. And even though there was a tree/plant covering the sign indicating this down the street - we got 2 $30 tickets on our car. Obviously, not Bo's fault, but be warned if you are driving that parking in a city lot is another option, but most of them you need to feed at 7am.
