The property is in a decent neighborhood near a school, grocery, boulangerie, restaurants, and shops. It was mostly quiet, with the noises expected in a city. We enjoyed the veranda, which had a good view of the city and part of Mont Royal, but the chairs need to be replaced. This was a nice space to end the day. There are bike lanes throughout the area, and it is very walkable. The city sweeps regularly. There is food waste, recycling, and garbage collection each week. We looked up the criteria for each on the city website, but a list in the house would be useful for visitors. IMPORTANT: There are only 2 bedrooms with separate doors - the “3rd bedroom” is actually an alcove of the middle-level floor and did not suite our needs for four adults and one teen who needed four separate spaces. We did appreciate 2 bathrooms. Separate air-con on each floor allowed for different comfort levels. There is no true living room, another alcove of the main floor. The photos needs updated to show the actual furniture and a better layout. Be mindful that all of the stairs are steep and narrow, and this unit is 3 levels, starting on the second story entry. Heavy suitcases are difficult to maneuver.When using a ride-share, getting to the location can be confusing, as it is on a one-way alley. This alley was blocked a few times during our stay by crews rehabbing other buildings and by city construction. There is no parking on the site.
