Map & Owner's Profile
The Gallery 2 - Beautiful 2 BR & Large Deck Near Atwater Mkt
Year Purchased: 2001
Why the Owner Chose Montreal
This is a great area, there are good restaurants and we are very close to the subway system (called Metro) so we can be downtown in minutes. We are also very close to the Atwater market where there is great food and restaurants. We are also minutes from the Canal which has great bike paths and walking areas that lead to the Old Port of Montreal.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
I worked very hard to make this a 5 star property. The building is 100 years old but has been carefully restored in every way so there is a lot of old world charm but with some modern upgrades like soundproofed walls, floors and ceilings as well as central vacuum. There is also a great deck on this floor that is next to our unique rooftop garden.
Owner's Map of Montreal
I always wanted to own a hotel and this about as close as it gets. My wife and I live next door and we enjoy meeting people from all over the world. I also believe that we offer a great value to travelers. We've made our apartments up as if we were renting them ourselves. We pride ourselves on being efficient and running a very well organized business and we try to make every aspect of your stay with us pleasant.

Quiet street in great location!

Great apartment! Very clean and well kept. Many thanks to John and Jane for their warm welcome and supply of fresh Montreal bagels! The owners were always available if needed. Well organized local information and wireless internet on site. Quiet location close to Atwater Market, the Lachine canal, and downtown. Recently renovated and plenty of space for our 16 month old to roam. We visit Montreal often and the apartment was perfect for our family gathering (fully equipped kitchen). We're planning to rent the unit again for upcoming visits.
Owner response:Thanks! It will be a pleasure to see you again.

We just returned from a two months stay in Montreal. Four of us (husband, wife, and two little children) lived in Jane and John's very clean and comfortable triplex. Our spacious and comfortable unit, with its own entrance, took up the second floor of the building. We also had access to a nice deck. Jane and John are the nicest and most responsive rental owners that I have ever interacted with, and I do quite a bit of travelling. They accommodated our particular needs/requests, and were helpful. They live in a building next door so were always available when needed. The building is nicely renovated, and its furnishings are in excellent shape and of high quality. The beds were comfortable and the linen, blankets and pillows were very clean. The rental came with everything a family of four needed for an extended stay, and everything was spotless. The size of our unit suited us perfectly- large enough for our family, with two bedrooms, and an extra tv room that our kids used as a playroom. The open kitchen and dining area were also comfortable to cook and sit in, and our kids also enjoyed that area. The location was convenient- on a quiet street, a short walk from the metro, with a few bus lines one block away. It only takes a few minutes by metro or car to get anywhere downtown, and it's a short walk to the atwater market. The immediate neighbourhood has an IGA supermarket nearby, a big old church, and a playground. Parking was easy to find and free, usually right in front of the building. This place was a real treat to stay in, and I highly recommend it.
Owner response:Thank you E&M, it is always a pleasure to meet nice people and the nice thing about doing this is that we sometimes make real lasting friendships too! See you again. J&J

The apartment certainly lived up to the photos and descriptions. The proximity of the Atwater Markets and restaurants gave us the choice of eating in or out and the 'depanneur' on the corner provided any last minute necessities. The metro was just minutes away and provided easy access to many attractions. John and Jane were very friendly and helpful and the information binder and brochures provided us with lots of options. I very much enjoyed the short stay in Montreal and would recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Montreal.

Our family reunion in August was a huge success, largely because of the apartments. We rented all three, and it was wonderful to have the second floor deck for meals and lounging around. It was a perfect combination of privacy and togetherness. Everyone loved the apartments and of course the proximity to Atwater Market and the canal. We rented a 10-person canoe one day for an hour or so! Also we went to nearby Joe Beef, what a fabulous meal, everyone was extremely impressed.

This is our second stay in John & Jane's building. We visited Gallery 3 a couple years ago. The building and the apartments are beautiful. Renovation work is lovely. I could live there - nice furnishings and art work, very clean. So nice to have more than a hotel room to come back to after a long day of exploring. A short walk to Metro provides easy access to museums and so much more. Bike path access is also quick and easy. We often ate breakfast and dinner in the apt and found we had all the tools we needed. John and Jane are extremely helpful, pleasant and accommodating - DVDs available (for all audiences), welcoming bagels, bikes to rent...We look forward to another visit soon.

Very clean and comfortable place to stay in Montreal

The condo was very, very clean. Jane brought us delicious bagels which we enjoyed all week long. The only thing you need to be very careful about is parking in the correct place on Thursday morning before 9:30 am. We were told we could park on the street behind the condo or on the cross street. We came back to the condo around 10:30 pm and parked on the cross street as there were no open spots on the street behind the condo. There were several other cars parked on the same side of the street. It is a one way street. The next morning we went out to move our car back to the front of the condo and found a parking ticket on our windshield for $52.00. We looked for signs on the street that said no parking, but didn't find any that we could understand. So we paid the ticket on-line for a total of $54.00.
Owner response:Hi E, I'm sorry that you got a ticket. The city just changed the parking hours so they surprised us too. We'll contact you to see what we can do to ease the pain. Thanks, J & J.

The apartment was perfect for my family of four. There was great access to the bike trails and the metro. The splash pad described on the website was great to have nearby. There is also a free outside swimming pool only a few blocks away that my children really enjoyed. We would definitely try to stay here again when we return to Montreal.
