For the best description, please READ OUR REVIEWS. We have the top 3 vacation rentals in Montreal and many repeat renters because we offer good value and are professional.
Gallery 3 is in a meticulously restored century old building close to downtown and minutes from the subway, the Atwater Market and the historic Lachine Canal. An ideal pied-à-terre for anyone that wants to be in one of the most dynamic boroughs in Montreal.
This 900 sq. ft., 3rd floor unit is bright, sleeps 4 to 6 , has hardwood floors and ceramic tiles. Spotlessly clean & tastefully decorated with original art, high quality furniture and linens & appointments throughout. It features MBR, BR, bathroom w washer & dryer, den w (double) pull out sofa, DR and a full kitchen with dishwasher that leads out to a large balcony with patio set and BBQ. Also equipped with books, board games and access to a DVD library of 100+ titles for all ages. The deluxe IGA grocery store is just 2 blocks away and there are many fine restaurants within walking distance (Joe Beef, Tuck shop). Called the GALLERY 3 because this is 1 of 3 units in this building that are located next to Jane's private art gallery & studio next door. We also rent bicycles.
There are many things to do in this area, including public tennis courts across the street, cycling or rollerblading on the Lachine Canal bike path (leave your bikes at home, our rentals are a bargain).

The Montreal apartment was great. Better than the pictures, and conveniently centrally located. We were two adults with two teenagers, and we spent four days in the apartment. The place was clean and spacious and was fully equipped for everything we needed for sleeping, cooking and entertaining. And the owner, John, was very helpful in getting us anything else we needed. We will definitely be returning our next trip to Montreal. We highly recommend staying here.

I have stayed in one apartment or another while visiting my family in Montreal, who made the inital recommendation. Each apartment is well maintained, comfortable, has a full kitchen, dining area and TV.The Atwater market, just 2 blocks away, is an amazing place to stock up and/or have lunch. The location is convenient for visiting Old Montreal, downtown galleries and shopw. A plus is that the owners are very personable and live in the building.

Great visit to Montreal. The apartment was great, sparkling clean and beautiful. The beds were super comfy and the hosts, Jane and John were very sweet. A+++ and will be returning. Loved the neighbourhood. The only thing missing was the snow. Next time.

This as charming 2 bedroom apartment (plus sitting/TV room) located southwest of downtown. The only negative observation is that there are steep stairs getting up to the apartment. This would have been a little scary for children less than about 7 or more mature visitors who had any issue with stairs. We rented a car in NY and drove up and there was never a problem finding parking around the apartment. The location is great and we will definitely stay there again when we return. The apartment was clean and well-stocked with some luxury touches in towels, linens, and bed coverings. Fresh bagels upon arrival were nice. It is obvious that John takes pride in these apartments. The neighborhood was fairly quiet with a few parties within earshot late on Friday evening. The grocery is very modern and clean and had everything we needed. The metro is just a couple of streets over but since there were five of us and I do not mind a big city, we drove downtown each day ($3 pr hour parking with 2 and 3 hour max with minimal problems finding parking - pay with CC at parking pay station). Our Montreal trip did not disappoint and the apartment was a big part of making it a memorable trip.
Owner response:Hi RG, My apologies for the stairs. This unit is special because 100 year ago when they constructed this building, they didn't believe in putting landings to break up a long flight of stairs. I guess our ancestors were used to a good workout! As for the parties, it was Halloween weekend and in a high density area, there's no rest for the wicked! Glad the partiers weren't too close though (since I live next door and I heard them too. Thanks and see you again.

We have spent a full week in this really nice appartment.. Very comfortable, clean, with well equiped kitchen. Very handy location, nearby metro station, yet in a quiet environment. All is arranged to make it easy during your stay. Nice outside wooden terrasse, just need a bit more heat in Montreal! All in all, we plan to come back in Montreal to check on our older one who studies in Montreal. We most likely will come back in this place.

We spent six nights here. The apartment was spotless upon arrival with lovely furnishings. John met us at the entry, having been contacted by our taxi driver for directions. John was most gracious and talked the driver in. John went over all the necessary house instructions and told us to call him if we needed anything. The loan of the Metro OPUS cards was really appreciated. The dozen bagels and cream cheese he left for us was also welcome treat - we enjoyed them for days. There was plenty of soap and cleaning supplies and linens and fully equipped kitchen. We really enjoyed the back porch, as well. IGA supermarket is a 5-7 minute walk; Place St. Henri Metro station is about 5 minutes away. Two observations: With three people, we felt a bit crowded in the lounge/living room area. The only other seating was the dining table - which is lovely, but not too comfy at the end of a long day of walking. Of course, most other people are probably more interested in going out at night than we were. I should have realized this upon booking, as John's photos are a very accurate depiction. The other small problem was that upon arrival all the towels smelled like mildew. They were probably left in the washer too long by the cleaning person. Thankfully the washer and dryer were very handy and I just did a load of towels to fix this. Despite these two tiny minuses, I still give this apartment 5/5 stars and would not hesitate to stay here again. The rental transaction was easily done and communication with John was excellent. I definitely recommend this apartment!
