My home is nestled on a quiet street located in the heart of downtown Montreal with direct access to subway station, train station and highway. It is close to both McGill and Concordia Universities. Old Montreal, Mont-Royal and the Lachine Canal are minutes away, which provides several opportunities for scenic walks. If you are working remotely and want to have walking access to any activity, then my home will provide the cozy, urban lifestyle to have the best of both worlds.
You have private backyard parking that leads directly to my home, so you don't have to worry about finding parking in downtown Montreal and literally walk everywhere!

A great quiet haven in a busy university neighborhood
What a wonderful apartment with outdoor space and parking, very close to universities and Center Bell. We rented it to drop off our daughter to Concordia and really enjoy the nice clean space, big kitchen and dining room (we hosted a couple of diner parties). The instructions were very clear and the apartment very charming. I absolutely recommend ++++
A great property, well appointed, great kitchen, perfect location for grabbing the metro or wandering into downtown or Griffintown. Owner was extremely responsive and helpful. Highly recommended!
Had a great stay in this two bedroom, one bath unit. Bedrooms downstairs provided great sleeping conditions as they were cool and quiet. It was great to have such good space so we could spread out and relax. Although we didn’t do much food prep there, definitely a cooks kitchen. Very well stocked with tools, pots pans, serving dishes etc. all top of the line.
The place is really cozy and location is fantastic.
The house is well stocked and we really enjoyed our stay. We especially loved the decoration in the house!
A beautiful, clean, and cozy apartment. Plenty of space and a well equipped kitchen. Very relaxing and in an awesome location! We can't wait to visit again!
The location is amazing! We were minutes from restaurants. It was a short drive to the old town. Patty’s place was very clean and had everything we needed. Patty was very responsive and a great host. I would highly recommend her place!
The location was great! Just across from the Metro and very close to Crescent street restaurants. Old montreal is a pretty easy walk or short cab ride. The apartment was wonderfully comfy and beautifully decorated. The beds were super-comfy. All we needed for our stay was provided. Our host was easy to communicate with. Thanks for a wonderful stay! We look forward to our next visit!!!
We loved loved loved our stay. The house is literally at the corner from the metro. We were blocks from the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. There were pubs, shops, restaurants and everything you could need close by. We only wish we had stayed here longer. The directions inside the home were clear, and very helpful. A lot of thought was put into these directions and we felt very welcome. I would highly recommend and would book again.
We had an excellent stay here while in town for the Grand Prix. The location is perfect with a subway stop just steps away. Also St Catherine street is just 3 blocks away for the street party. Patty is an excellent host with great communications. The apartment is clean and very comfortable, we highly recommend. There are many restaurants within an easy walk.
Great property! Literally steps from Metro and easy walk from Via Rail station. Everything was perfect at the townhouse-kitchen had everything we could possibly need. After living out of suitcases and hotels for 8 days we really appreciated the washer/dryer and space to spread out a bit. Groceries, pharmacy, and anything you may wish to eat are within a few minutes walk. Had a quick question and Patty was a super responsive host. Recommend!
This is a lovely 2 bedroom apartment located conveniently to the metro and easily walkable to downtown/old montreal in 20 minutes. 10 minute walk from the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.
Apartment was well heated and quiet, the beds were very comfortable with lovely bedding.
Bathroom has heated floors and was very clean. Plenty of fresh towels available.
Instructions and communication with Patty was great. We didn't have a car for our trip and didn't need it, given great public transportation.
I've already recommended this apartment to friends!
Ms. Contenta's property is remarkably clean. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the whole property felt like home. The kitchen was already prepared so we could have a warm cup of tea when we arrived. When there were some unforeseen changes to our timeline Ms. Contenta was very kind and easy to reach. The location was wonderful and the parking spot was very convenient. I look forward to staying in her home again!
Beautiful brownstone that made us feel at home. Was easy to park and then use the metro right across the street for all our adventures. Everything was very accessible and Patty provided lots of information. Beds downstairs were comfortable.
This is a great location and close to a lot of great restaurants and shopping and within walking distance to old Montreal (about a mile I think) but if you’re not up to walking the metro is literally across the street. We had amazing meals at Mano Cornuto (4 course) and Nora Gray. If you like Indian and don’t mind jumping on the metro to the Mount Royal area, India Rosa is worth the trip or Beauty’s for brunch…both 10/10! Patty was a great host and very responsive. It was so nice to have basic toiletries and kitchen items supplied. Just pack your clothes and go have a great time! Thanks so much Patty. We will be back 😊
Patty was very responsive to all our questions. Her apt. is just as pictured- very clean, stylish and roomy with modern appliances and fixtures. Excellent location for access to public transportation and sightseeing. Would definitely rent again.
This house is beautifully decorated and exquisitely clean, not to mention comfortable! There was a lot of construction, making getting around challenging at times, but with parking right outside the back door, coming “home” was easy!
Thank you Patty for another wonderful stay. This was our second time at your property and it was just as special as we remembered it! The home is so well appointed. It really has everything you can need. The quality of the appliances, water system, and furnishings is remarkable. The heated bathroom floors are much appreciated.
The home is very well located - everything is walk-able - and with the metro at your footsteps it doesn't get any easier to commute this city. The property is very quiet, and having a parking space in the city is a major bonus.
We so enjoyed out time at your place!
