From our first correspondence with Maryam (and the photos on the site), we knew exactly what to expect - and it was exactly what we wanted. Does this place have tons of bells and whistles? No. But it's in a comfortable street, within a comfortable walking neighborhood (walking distance to public transit), and has all the amenities you need to feel right at home in Montreal. (When we told friends where we were staying, they were excited by the proximity to all Montreal has to offer - without the hassle or price tag of being in trendier areas.) We had to cut our stay short, and Maryam was incredibly understanding. We're already hoping to stay there again in the future!
This was a lovely little apartment. A bit old-fashioned, but it did claim to be vintage! It was a great combination to be in a quieter part of the city, but close to the metro so we could get anywhere. Very clean and comfortable!
