The neighborhood was great as the location was very close to the downtown. The room was spacious and clean and Martine provided breakfast (toast & jam) for us as well. Great value. She was also very kind and let us drink wine in the room while getting ready for dinner. However, we were a little disappointed to realize that smoking was allowed inside of the apartment. We should have payed more attention to the smoking details before booking as we were both non smokers. Although we had notified Martine that we were leaving the apartment at 5 AM prior to booking (and were as quiet as possible when leaving the apartment at this hour in order to catch our flight), it was obvious that this departure time posed as a problem for her due to the close proximity of our room to hers. Perhaps this was an English/French translation problem via airbnb, however if this time frame was a problem - this should have been communicated prior to booking as we do not want to disrupt hosts and feel uncomfortable about the situation as well. Overall, great stay - better for those who smoke and are departing the house during normal hours. Shannon
