Not soundproof at all :(
I booked the apartment because on the website it said SOUNDPROOF but it wasn’t at all. I heard everything from the next room and the hallway. I communicated to find a somubut no one answered and security said “for us it’s soundproof” but very good location in China town

The area outside had some sketchy people, but not bad overall. China town is very close by, a couple of blocks away. Also, it's not far to other areas as well, such as the Old Port.

If you have any event at the Palais des congrès de Montréal this is the place to stay. You are one block from the Metro two blocks from Chinatown and a block from the convention center.

Very hard to find. Gave wrong internet login. Area felt unsafe. Many homeless right outside entrance. A few got into building and were running around screaming for 2-3 hours. No staffing in building after 5.

Great location. Obviously extremely convenient for convention centre access.
Communication lacked a little.
We were short on coffee pods (enough for 2 days, what about the rest of the week?), had to purchase our own.
We very much enjoyed the stay and will come back when next time in Montreal !

Centrally located to many of Montreal's dining and cultural attractions. Walkable to downtown, the Latin Quarter (great dining), and only a block away from the metro station Place de Arms.

The room itself was pretty good, and clean. Location was convenient. But the air conditioning did not seem to work, nor did the WiFi Access. I sent a message about both during my 3 night stay but never heard back.

The unit I stayed was spacious and close to many downtown tourist attractions.
However, there is some false advertising here. First there is no 24 hour front desk (I think the receptionist is only there until 5 during the week and nobody is there for the weekend) so you can't store your luggage after the checkout if the receptionist is not working. Also the room is not soundproof as advertised, and we could hear noise through the windows from the streets (I was woken up by people playing music outside).
Lastly it seems that the property management doesn't check their message inbox in the Expedia app?

Local was central to sight seeing. What would have been good is having a basic starter pack e.g milk sugar etc. there was no information on public transportation or places to visit or restaurants, this would have been very beneficial. Kettle require descaling as not pleasant inside. No instructions on how to use electric goods. Accomodation was good value for money and there was plenty of toiletries. We would use accommodation again if visiting Montréal.

Very cute in a pretty good location can usually walk to everything we only took metro once, I liked how there was multiple security measures, one thing I would note is the front had a lot of in housed people, though this did not bother us or put a factor on the stay, they were a little loud at night but still slept fine

Great location as we just parked the car and walked everywhere. Apartment was large & easily accommodated a family of 5. Was very clean & when we needed more coffee pods we asked & were given some. Area has homeless people near, but they did not bother us. All in all, a fantastic location & we’d stay there again!

The property was clean, and quiet. It had easy access (with info given days in advance), in an area where we could walk to all the activities we had planned. They refreshed our towels without request (thank you!), and seemed like someone was on site daily for any questions.

We primarily book this property for its proximity to the Montreal Congress site, but were ultimately pleased with the property & amenities. The information conveyed was easy to understand and the staff friendly and helpful. Metro close by. Old Montreal a short 10 min walk. All that we needed for our 5 night stay.

The property was close to downtown, however, there were a lot of people without homes in the neighbourhood often yelling. The entranceway and the elevator were not clean. There was mould in the tile in the bathroom. The fitted sheet did not fit on the bed and kept coming off, the Wi-Fi password we were given was incorrect, we paid an exorbitant amount of money to stay in that property on busy and popular weekend in Montreal. It was ridiculous.

We were so impressed. Spacious, lots of natural light, stove, fridge, washer, dryer, all conveniences. Easy access with codes. The apartment was so close to Montreal sites. 650 to the Basilica de Notre Dame. We would definitely stay again. Thank you.

Place is getting run down. Bathroom door off hinge and unable to fix, grout missing in bathroom, no toilet paper holder, no creamer for coffee pods that come in room. Extremely small bathroom!!! Felt unsafe outside of building with all of the homeless hanging around during the day and sleeping on all of the benches out front.
Was given 2 addresses for parking lots in the area, one of those was closed which left us not much choice of where to park.
On the other hand, great central location to walk everywhere we wanted to go.
Internet wasn’t working, which was maddening since we wanted to plan our activities and meals.
