The apartment is in a great location close to restaurants, bars, groceries, patisseries and public transport. I didn't care for Cafe Du Centre. I ordered a lamb shank and it was ice cold in the middle! Don't bother with Le Brebant either. They served an off salmon tartare and didn't believe us.
Walking around was such a treat.
In every airbnb I've rented, all were lived in except this one so there will be homey things missing like sugar or condiments and there were only 2 toilet paper rolls provided for a week for 3 guests. We were also charged $30 just to meet someone for check in. This is the first time I've ever been charged extra to check in. While it is noted on the air bnb site, it's an odd practice. I did make a suggestion to get a lock box or something.
The elevator did not work on the first day but luckily Clement, who checked us in helped with the luggage.
Clement didn't tell us what was available in the apartment like garbage bags. I opened very door in the kitchen and didn't see any so I texted but didn't get an answer. My brother who was taller eventually found it on a top shelf.
The uber driver couldn't get to the address since it is one way so wait at the top of the street.
If you're a light sleeper, choose the bedroom closest to the front door (the only room with a real window). You can feel and hear the train underneath with the other 2 bedrooms especially the furthest bedroom with the shower.
Great heaters if you rent in the winter like we did. The heated towel rack in the shower was a nice touch. Oh, make sure the toilet door is fully closed or the person in the shower will have a hard time getting out as both door handles are very close to each other.
My mom left her wallet and passport in the apartment. The real estate company were kind enough to send it back to us.
Great location, I felt very safe walking around by myself till almost midnight.
