It’s a great little spot but I don’t recommend if you have trouble with a lot of stairs as there is no elevators and many stairs. Great communication from the owner and the place looks fairly clean there were a few areas that we questionable (kitchen there was still coffee stains on the counter).

We were happy with our stay - the place was clean and the beds were comfortable - but we had counted on doing laundry and the washer / dryer in the suite was out of order. The neighborhood is a little noisy, but overall a good experience.

The communication needs improving. I had to call expedia to contact the property so we can get in. Also they do not give back the security deposit instead ask you to reach out to your bank within 5 business days to get that refund.

Very nice hotel, it is a two story apartment with 2 washroom and 2 bedrooms. Lower level is living, dining room, kitchen and washroom. Upper floor with 2 bedrooms, washroom and laundry (washer dryer). Very clean with hardwood flooring. Kitchen comes with pans and pods, plates and tools. The only thing you need is your own oil and spices. The service is great, although there is no reception, you can just leave message to them, they will provide you all access and info including the parking info by text message. Not even mention it is locating in the core of old Montreal. Price is good. Noted that there might be some broken hardware here and there, I don’t mind because I always bring a screwdrivers when travel. I cam easily go ahead and complain about it but hey, I am on vacation after all. I considered this as one kind of experience.

No communications from hotel after emailing several times about issues. No soundproofing so very loud for sleeping- I could actually hear people walking on the street below as well and talking and every car that drove by (we had 2nd floor room with windows onto the street).Also restaurant plays loud music til 10pm which you will easily hear. And as windows not insulated there was a draft from window onto the bed. Had to find extension cord for the TV & then it wouldn't go past the 1st screen (in french) & we couldn't watch anything. There is a nice looking kitchenette with a small amount of items- but only 1 coffee cup! The apartment door seems very insecure and has definitely been kicked in several times- the frame was loose and the door had a small lock which has been repaired (not even a deadbolt). I would not stay here again. It is a good location in Old Montreal and was easy to get into the building and our room as they emailed me the door codes. The space is laid out well but obviously they didn't put effort into the finishing touches- several areas of paint peeling, bad repair work & water damage in bathroom & about 9 different light switches but couldn't get the light to work by the door or several of the ceiling lights. I'm a pretty basic person but this was not a good stay. Had they responded to any of my emails and moved us to a different room maybe our stay would have been better for us. Find somewhere else to stay.
