My group has stayed at this property twice now, mostly recently during during Montreal Pride in 2019.
The owners have undertaken a smart and handsome renovation of the property. The property takes advantage of many of the old craftsmanship and details that you would find in any classic property in the Le Plateau-Mont-Royal neighborhood, and added in a number of modern and updated elements that you would expect in any mid-to-high-end range rental property. It has been exciting to see the improvements continue with each stay.
Access to the rental is easy and smart, which is helpful for larger groups for sure. The kitchen and common/living room areas have plenty of space to entertain in the rental amidst your adventures in Montreal (we took advantage of putting together a small brunch on morning and it felt just like being at home). The bedrooms are well appointed with plenty of closet space and privacy.
My friends and I have repeatedly called the rental: cute, quaint, spacious, practical, and laid out perfectly for hosting re-union type gatherings. Location is everything; you're right in the mix of what makes the Le Plateau-Mont-Royal neighborhood *THE PLACE TO BE* if you want to experience a taste of the finer things in Montreal, have some fun neighborhood-type experiences under your belt, do some sightseeing, get in to a little bit of trouble down on Rue St-Catherine, and then write home to mom & dad about the things you saw at McGill or in Old Montreal. The owners recommended Beauty's Luncheonette as a "must see" in the neighborhood for at least one of our brunch experiences, and we are so happy we took their recommendation.
The owners are friendly, fantastic, accessible and extraordinarily helpful during the stay. It is nice to have immediate access when questions arise and unexpected things happen (we all have the friend whose flight arrives early, or have experienced the rush of checking out).
We definitely look forward to having the opportunity to rent this property during our next trip to Montreal.
