We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Xavier's apartment. The position was very close to a great restaurant area and the shopping district. In fact, nothing was far: all within walking distance.
As we didn't have a car, we also discovered that the C tram, which had a stop just around the corner, dropped us back at the station.
Lastly, Xavier not only helped carry our bags up the stairs, but he advised on eating, shopping and even some music options. Thanks Xavier!
