We have just returned from our first, but definitely not last, holiday through HomeAway. We were thrilled with the comfort, value and convenience of our apartment. We felt extremely well cared for by the generous and gracious hosts, Jane and John, who live conveniently right next door. The neighbourhood the apartment is located in is in transition – read some buildings and shops nicer than others – but we found it fun, funky and safe.
The best aspect of the location is that it is very close to the Métro. Sightseeing in Montreal is four to five Métro stops away, but we also travelled in Montreal by car and it was easy to find parking at the apartment and to get to the major sites in 10 -20 mins. We like to walk and we especially enjoyed walking to the Atwater market in the mornings before our teenaged kids got up, savouring a latté, purchasing the day’s provisions and then getting on with the day.
The apartment has a very comfortable queen bed and a pullout double that was fine for the teenagers. The bathroom, kitchen and laundry room are very convenient and well-equipped. We found the furnishings and lovely art on the walls very tasteful and even soothing after a hard day of sight-seeing and over-eating! As mentioned by a previous poster, the photos do not do the apartment justice
Another plus if you are travelling with friends, do as we did and rent in the same building from the same owners. Jane and John own the whole building where there will be soon 3 separate apartments.
We look forward to returning to fabulous Montreal, and we will certainly try first to book at this same location.
