Perfect place. Good wifi great facilities. Would stay again
Jun 27, 2019I stayed at Ben's place for about 5 days and really enjoyed it. The place was great and exactly as described but what really stands out is the host. He made the stay a smooth experience with any questions sorted right away. He went far and beyond to accommodate any request with great attention to detail. There was an instance where his integrity would come under a test and let me tell you, the guy is trustworthy. Would definitely stay again and recommend anyone!
Jun 27, 2019Un studio pratique vu les installations et l'emplacement. Mais petit. Bon rapport qualité/prix.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay at Ben's apartment. Very central, and looked exactly like the pictures! Would stay again!
Jun 27, 2019The apartment location is near Concordia and guy station which is perfect. Ben is a nice guy we had few hrs delay he s been nice to us. The room is very clean
Jun 27, 2019Nous n'avons pas rencontré Ben en personne mais il a été à l'écoute et bien présent par messages pour nous assurer une bonne arrivée dans son appartement. L'appartement 1 pièce correspond plutôt bien aux photos, il est au 3ème d'une grande tour de 23 étages, avec piscine/sauna et salle de sport au dernier étage (auxquels nous avons accès en libre service et qui sont supers !) L'immeuble est bien situé, au pied du mont royal et à quelques mètres sur métro Guy Concordia et de la rue Sainte Catherine. C'était une très bonne expérience que nous renouvèlerions avec plaisir ! Merci Ben !
Jun 27, 2019Appartement très propre et très bien situé !
Jun 27, 2019Great apartment, excellent location
Jun 27, 2019très bien
Jun 27, 2019Satisfied !!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place was awesome, his instructions for check in / parking were super clear and easy. Location was perfect for exploring downtown, would definitely stay at Ben's spot again!
Jun 27, 2019Perfect cozy bachelor pad that was centrally located. Free parking was such a nice perk since Montreal has a lot of parking meters.
Jun 27, 2019Bon rapport qualité/prix, des belles commoditées et un bon emplacement dans Montréal.
Jun 27, 2019The place was perfect for our needs and the parking off the street was big, arriving as we did just before a big snowstorm. The location was great for nightlife downtown and only a block from the subway. We took our time choosing the place and were glad we did. Also, Ben was quick to respond and checked in to make sure everything was going well.
Jun 27, 2019Not my first time in this building; great location. Apartment was spotless. Easy check-in. Terrific parking option. Nice little touches like can of ground coffee next to coffeemaker - not as common as you'd think. Will stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Bens place is brilliant location with a convenient parking place to go with it! He is very good with communicating and was willing to help with anything! Thank you again. Perfect, host for me!!
Jun 27, 20195 stars
Jun 27, 2019Very nice place. Wifi worked well and super close to the metro. Loved my stay.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is handy for shopping and walking on the West side of Ste Catherine in downtown Montreal. The apartment is clean and parking is easy to access. There are many restaurants nearby, so once you've parked, it's easy to explore Montreal on foot or by metro. I think the space is much better suited to 2 people than to 4 (open concept), but it would be doable it you were 4 friends on a budget.
Jun 27, 2019Awesome value!
Jun 27, 2019Ben was a great host. Easy to communicate with. His place was nice and in a great location. Walking distance to a lot of places. Parking was very convenient.
Jun 27, 2019This apartment was perfect for what we were looking for. Not only was it clean, it was well stocked, and in a great location. The parking spot was an added bonus for us because we drove to Montreal. Ben was a fantastic host who was easy to get in touch with before, during, and after our stay. St. Catherine was a 2 minute walk away and had tons of restaurants and great bars to offer. I would highly recommend this location to anyone who was looking for a decent place to stay right in the heart of the city.
Jun 27, 2019Cute little apartment, close to everything essential.. great place to stay!
Jun 27, 2019Ben has a great place - parking and public transit were easy!
Jun 27, 2019Nice, private studio apartment, conveniently located within walking distance to the subway. We never actually interacted with Ben, but were able to message him while there and received a quick response. thank you for letting us stay at your place!
Jun 27, 2019Very cute and clean apartment right in the heart of the city. Easy access to the metro was incredibly convenient and lots of shops and good places to eat nearby. Parking was convenient. Bed was super comfy too! Ben was a great host and helped out if we had any questions. Would highly recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is perfect for couples who are looking for a cozy spot to stay in downtown Montreal. It's clean, it's quiet, and it looks exactly like it does in the pictures. It comes with a lot of amenities, and the Wi-Fi works very well. Ben's place came stocked with soap, shampoo, toilet paper, towels, a hair dyer, and even an ironing machine. The free parking is extremely convenient for guests driving to Montreal; however, I do caution those with taller vehicles (like raised trucks) since the ceiling of the garage leading to the outdoor lot didn't seem that spacious in height. We were able to park and leave our car in the same spot for the entire duration of our trip while relying on the metro station that is one block away to get around the city. Ben's place is also conveniently located two blocks away from Sainte Catherine Street which has a great variety of shops and restaurants all within walking distance. Ben was very polite and quick to respond to any questions we had. His check-in/check-out instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I would absolutely recommend booking with Ben. Thank you again for the wonderful stay!
Jun 27, 2019Great value and great location. Close to Guy-Concordia metro station, convenience stores, SAQ, tons of restaurants, etc. Quiet at night but some traffic noise during the afternoon. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable stay for nearly half the price of an average hotel room. Great communication from the host as well!
Jun 27, 2019Ben was really nice and accommodating. Communication was superb. The location was also central and close to a lot of restaurants and essential places. The free parking was also really helpful since street parking is quite expensive and limited. The building is quite old and the other tenants on the floor did not maintain their units so the smell of smoking is very evident. The unit itself is pretty clean so that was good. Overall good experience. Affordable price with decent stay/unit.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is nicely located in Montreal in a trendy part of town. Ben's communication throughout was excellent. There are many restaurants and bars within walking distance of his place. The apartment itself is in a quiet building and has all the necessities for a comfortable stay. The place was clean and easy to find. The biggest advantage is that you get secure parking included with your stay, so if you are driving into town definitely great. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
Jun 27, 2019Ben was very clear and conscise with his instructions. Check-in/check-out went seamlessly. Great neighbourhood, close to all amenities, good food spots, metro and bars.
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay while visiting downtown Montreal. Ben is a great host, he makes it easy to settle in and answers right away to any questions. The place had everything you could need for a short stay and was very clean. I would stay there again anytime.
Jun 27, 2019Met all of our expectations, loved our stay!
Jun 27, 2019Very nice apartment in a good location!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is right downtown, a block away from the subway station, which is a great location (free parking was great too). Throughout, Ben was very responsive to our questions, and the process was easy and simple; he is very easy to work with, and definitely recommend his place for anyone looking to visit Montreal.
Jun 27, 2019Ben A est un hôte très accommodant. Il répond rapidement au message et s'assure que tout est en place pour un séjour réussi ! Le stationnement est un plus ! Merci !
Jun 27, 2019Good location that was about 5 minutes from the metro. The apartment looks like the photos and was spacious. The only downside is that it smelled strong of cigarettes from the neighbours. Neighbours are loud until late at night - some times as early as 3am.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's apartment is exactly as pictured and described, really clean and the location was perfect! Communication with Ben was super easy, and he was really understanding of our unexpected very late arrival into Montreal. Highly recommend!!
Jun 27, 2019The communication with Ben was fast, clear and we had no problem with the check in or finding our way around. He wrote out the instructions that we could refer back to and it had all our questions answered and made us feel comfortable. The space is what you see in the pictures and there were no surprises- just good ones like the mini coffee maker. The location was perfect and parking was easy. We had a great weekend! Thank you.
Jun 27, 2019Wonderful, clean apartment in a great location. It's walking distance from pretty much anything you could want. The neighborhood is nice and hip. Free parking and Netflix is a nice touch. I really enjoyed my stay. Ben responds very quickly to messages and is super helpful!
Jun 27, 2019The location was great. The room was cozy and clean. This wasn't my first airbnb experience and it was excellent. The metro down the street is very helpful! There are also a ton of restaurants a few blocks up on crescent and bishop street. Very easy to get around and find your way to any spot in Montreal including the botanical garden/biodome, old port and other spots down town. Overall great experience!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place was in a great location!
Jun 27, 2019Great place to stay. Nice and close to saint Catherine street.
Jun 27, 2019Communication with Ben was helpful and thorough, he responded almost instantly to any questions. The apartment was clean and cute and centrally-located. Parking was really convenient too. We loved our stay!
Jun 27, 2019Ben was a great host. We had a small issue at the check-in but ben quickly fixed it. The apartment is awesome, it's clean, well furnished, located 5 mins walk from subway station, grocery stores, cafes and bars. I would recommend this place.
Jun 27, 2019Great part of town, quiet street but only a block from nightlife and great restaurants. Good size and clean apartment with a good view of the Montreal streets! Will be back for sure.
Jun 27, 2019Apartment was very nice and well-furnished. Communication was excellent.
Jun 27, 2019Clean apartment in a convenient location. Bed was comfy and there was complimentary coffee, which is always appreciated.
Jun 27, 2019The location of the apartment was good as it was near a metro station and had a convenience store and many dining places nearby. Ben gave very detailed instructions so we were able to check in seamlessly. He was also quick to respond to our queries
Jun 27, 2019Nice, clean place facing a busy street. Convenient parking. Very close to Metro station if don't want to use the car. Very nice communication with the host - very helpful and responsive.
Jun 27, 2019The place was accurately represented by the pictures. I am glad that I booked this location.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's apartment is very simple and nice. Although we never met in person, check in and check out was easy and communication was strong. The apartment was clean, easy to find, and the bed was very comfortable! I would really recommend this place. Thanks!
Jun 27, 2019A wonderful little quiet apt with a good soaker bathtub and a comfortable bed. Oh yes, and really appreciated the Netflix and TED talks channels!
Jun 27, 2019Ben was great! The apartment was clean and accurate to the description of the listing. After one very small miscommunication, we were settled into the place like it was a friends house. He was extremely responsive and very helpful with travel ideas for my friend and I!
Jun 27, 2019Great accommodation and a really good size for a studio flat. Loved the living room area, which was an extremely comfortable place to have a night in. The AC, though noisy was great when it worked, though it did cut out all the electrics at one point, but Ben was on hand immediately to help rectify the problem. Brilliant location; lovely neighborhood, convenience store in the building, walking distance to metro and plenty of restaurants nearby. Free secure parking on site was a bonus, especially as we relied on public transport after parking up, which was easy to negotiate. A couple of additional touches would make it perfect; a full length mirror in the room, some lighter bed sheets and shelves/drawers to unpack some clothes. That being said it was suitable for our needs.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is great for those visiting Montreal: walking distance to Bell Center, shopping area, restaurants, Mont Real. A bit on the down side was the noise coming from outside during the night, but that's because it's a central apartment and big cities are noisy. Communication went smoothly, we are happy with our choice. Thanks, Ben.
Jun 27, 2019Very clean and was exactly advertised , had a great experience and would stay again in a heartbeat!
Jun 27, 2019This place was nice and clean, close to a lot of restaurants and shopping. I would stay again.
Jun 27, 2019This is a terrific location and the apartment has everything you could need! Ben is very helpful and easy to communicate with. Overall a great experience.
Jun 27, 2019The studio is really well designed so that it feels very comfortable and spacious, and the location was perfect. We loved our stay!
Jun 27, 2019Excellent location, communication, cleanliness. It was a perfect trip and Ben made sure of it! Thank you!
Jun 27, 2019Great location. Ben was very quick to respond back!
Jun 27, 2019Ben was a great host. Very responsive and responsible. His place is very clean and was in a very central location.
Jun 27, 2019The experience was true to the listing. It's a clean little apartment in a lively neighborhood. We brought a tandem bike with us and it was stressful because it was too large to fit in the elevator. We could not find a bike rack and ended up locking it to the fence behind our parked car. Fortunately it was not stolen out of the secure lot but it was a worry for us. Tandems are extra big and heavy. Perhaps a standard bike would have fit in the elevator just fine. The apartment has a balcony & we could have stored it there.
Jun 27, 2019Loved staying at Ben's apartment. He was always very quick to respond and we really appreciated his attentiveness. On top of that, his home was quaint and cozy and in a very convenient location! We walked to many different areas from the apartment. Bus stops are nearby as well. It was extremely convenient and comfortable. Ben was extremely helpful in recommending us places to visit and even accommodated us arriving a bit earlier so we didn't have to carry our heavy luggage around. Loved visiting Canada and loved being able to stay in this cute apartment. I'd definitely recommend.
Jun 27, 2019Great visit.
Jun 27, 2019Ben was a great host, always available to answer any questions I had and was very accommodating during my stay. I was traveling from outside the US and I felt very comfortable in the apartment. The location is in a great part of town, very walkable to many stores and restaurants. I would definitely recommend this apartment.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's apartment was perfect for a weekend in Montreal. Great location, very clean apartment, and very easy check-in process
Jun 27, 2019My sister and I stayed at Bens place for one night. He communicated quickly when needed but we gave him 3 stars because the apartment was not very clean. The neighbourhood that the apartment was in made us a bit uneasy at times. The overall price was a bit much for the space but the pool and rooftop terrace were enjoyable.
Jun 27, 2019Great location and very easy communication. We loved our stay here.
Jun 27, 2019We are really thankful to Ben. We arrived at home after midnight due to our flight. He made no problem of it and even comforted us.
Jun 27, 2019Appartement très bien situé et facile d'accès :-)
Jun 27, 2019Bad experience Noisy neighborhood busy, construction site, smell of weed everywhere in the building. .. Old apartment Not clean at all Bad furniture Not sure the linens or towels were clean or any cleaning was done at all before our entrance Kitchen missing so many tools And pricy for what is Instruction was good and adequate and down town is just reachable easily
Jun 27, 2019Great location and it's as advertised. Ben is great about getting back quickly when you have questions.
Jun 27, 2019The place was ok, certainly not great. It would've been nice to have a little more than an old dish towel in the bathroom to dry our hands, let alone a couple of actual bath towels. The building itself was the real problem, dingy and run down would be the most charitable way to describe it. Falling down construction foam wrap in the elevator, plastic sheeting covering the carpet in the hallway. Not a good look. But for us, the real clinker was when we got there, plastered all over the doors and walls were signs saying the water was going to be turned off from 9:00AM-5:00PM. Totally unacceptable. The signs were posted the day before, and our host should have known and informed us of this. His response was "It's not my fault!!" And yes, that is his actual quote.not something I ever wanted to hear from my kids, an definitely not a response I want from a host. I called Airbnb, cancelled our next day, and thankfully, was able to get a full refund. If you're looking for a budget place to stay, this might be ok as long as there are no other problems with the building. Otherwise, if you are looking for someplace nice, in my opinion, keep looking.
Jun 27, 2019Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral, das ist wirklich gut. Das Gebäude an sich ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig aber das Zimmer in Ordnung.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's apartment was perfect. I arrived after midnight. Check-in was flawless. The apartment was clean. The air conditioning was already running. The area is near Concordia College. Lots of younger people. However, it was very quiet during my stay. A close walk to Starbucks and the location of my deposition near the hospital. Uber drivers were me at the ready, if need. Good deal.
Jun 27, 2019We loved staying here. This apartment is a basic studio apartment so if you're looking for a luxury stay this is not your place...but for us it was perfect. We just needed place to crash in Montreal which was one of our stops in a very long road trip we were on. Having off street parking was a huge plus - we parked our car and didn't have to think about it or look at it for the duration of our stay. This apartment is in a fantastic location and we were able to walk or take the city bike system to every single place we wanted to go - museums, Old Montreal, shopping, and restaurants.
Jun 27, 2019Great location and private parking is a major plus for anyone driving. The pillows were very thin, so be sure to bring your own. The rooftop and pool were nice. There was a lot of construction going on throughout the building, but I didn't notice it when inside my room.
Jun 27, 2019Thank you for the stay Ben. The apartment was great.
Jun 27, 2019Great location! Within walking distance to everything downtown. Ben was very friendly and helpful, highly recommended.
Jun 27, 2019Good spot! Great location, responsive host. Exactly as advertised
Jun 27, 2019Great location, easy check in and it was wonderful to have free parking. Apt was OK, it could use a woman's touch. It is difficult to walk beside the bed without banging your shins but the bed was surprisingly comfortable. Could use some extra pillows though.
Jun 27, 2019Nice appartment, as described in the profile. All you need is there. Central location. Very easy communication with Ben. Good value for money and idéal for a short stay in Montreal.
Jun 27, 2019Great place in a great location. Nice stylish studio apartment in the downtown area...would definitely stay again! Ben was quick to respond to messages and really helpful.
Jun 27, 2019Great location, awesome private parking (as long as you don't have too tall of a truck or SUV to get in), clean, and great communication from Ben! We would love to visit again!
Jun 27, 2019This is a great apartment located just outside of the central shopping district. It's conveniently located to a Metro station to take you wherever you need to go. The instructions to access the apartment are clear and parking is provided. The only two complaints is that the pillows were pretty much non-existent and there is not a remote for the TV, which was only a problem because it was on when we got there, but there are buttons on the side to turn it off and adjust the volume. I would definitely stay again.
Jun 27, 2019Je recommande à 100% !! Rapport Qualité prix incroyable
Jun 27, 2019Niceand easy place to stay. Nothing fancy but great communication with the host and everything was clean and convenient.
Jul 27, 2019Ben’s apartement was clean (even though some utensil were not from previous renters I guess). Communication with Ben was on point before and while my stay. There were lots of noise coming from outside and inside the building (but then again it’s Montreal!). The free parking is really great and easy to find. This is a wonderful value for being three blocks from Downtown and it was what I was looking for. I would recommand this apartement!
Jun 27, 2019Great value, excellent location ! Amazing experience !
Jun 27, 2019The studio was very clean and comfy.
Jun 27, 2019Very good!
Jun 27, 2019This apartment was in the perfect location - walking distance to restaurants, shops, and the metro! The place was spotless and had great amenities. Would definitely recommend staying here!
Jun 27, 2019Nice place, good description, well situated in Downtown. Ben was a good host, quick to answer any question. Parking was ideal, if you have a standard car.
Jun 27, 2019The host is very instructive and detailed, which is a good thing because you don’t need to be left wondering. Clear instructions are given and host is responsive. The place was as expected, nothing less. Overall a good experience would recommend this place.
Jun 27, 2019This place is in the perfect location I n so many ways. Great bed, nice couch, next to everything! Could easily fit 4 adults. Would stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019My girlfriend and I stayed here for 3 days from Dec. 29th - Jan. 2nd. This place is amazing, it is very close to the majority of Montreal attractions. For the price, this is a great deal. The subway stop is about 5 - 7 mins walk. Everything is within a 5 miles radius. For those who are planning to visit Montreal during New Year, EVERYTHING IS CLOSED ON JANUARY 1ST. The only problem we ran into is that it got a little cold during the night, but nothing too unbearable. The entrance to the parking is a little low, my compact SUV antenna kept hitting the top of it. I can't imagine a big truck or SUV fit through it. Overall, it was great and I would definitely stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019Excellent hôte, très propre, tout était parfait, bonne communication et très bien situer, je recommandes fortement, merci énormément de votre accueil!
Jun 27, 2019Great location! A short distance from downtown. Really enjoyed our stay at this location, it was a great spot for our trip!
Jun 27, 2019Beautiful and clean. Would stay again
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is in a great location. It is close to everything and has great amenities and is very secure. I had a great stay and was very comfortable during my entire stay. Netflix was available on the TV and he even had menus for some of the area's restaurants to help make dinner easier. Ben is quick to respond to questions and requests and if I'm ever in need of a flat in Montreal again, his listings will be the first place I check. Thanks for reading and have a great time in Montreal.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place and nice host.
Jun 27, 2019Nice place but it wasn’t clear that it was a studio until we got there. Good location. Decent size for a studio, though. Overall, enjoyed my stay!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place was easy to find, and the free parking is great! The place is clean and located in an accessible area to many restaurants, bars, and museums. He communicated quickly and gave detailed directions on how to check in, and there is a sauna, right enough said. Safe and clean place. Very happy with my stay, will stay here again next time I'm in Montreal.
Jun 27, 2019My stay in Ben's apartment was great! It is very well localized, near many stores, shopping malls and supermarkets. Metro station Guy and many bus stations are close too. Ben always answered me fast, what I really appreciate. Also he was very supportive in my arrival and departure. I definitely recommend his apartment!
Jun 27, 2019Exactly what the posting says and true to the pictures. Ben's place was exactly what we needed for our weekend trip. Ben was very good at responding and made check-in seamless.
Jun 27, 2019A nice place to stay in the heart of Montreal downtown
Jun 27, 2019Ben’s apartment was spectacularly clean and organized as well as perfectly located near downtown. He provided clear and detailed instructions about everything he might need. He was friendly and suggested great local attractions! We had a great trip!
Jun 27, 2019Super Séjour à Montréal! Un appartement très bien placé pour faire toute la ville à pied, Ben est un hôte très réactif et disponible pour toute aide. Merci encore Ben :)
Jun 27, 2019Ben answered all of our questions quickly before we arrived. The check-in process was easy. We found we could walk to lots of place from the apartment and we were so close to the metro as well.
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place is a in a really central location - walking distance to many restaurants and shops as well as the metro stop. Even though it is in such a central location, we weren't bothered by any noise. The place has everything you need (kitchen utensils etc.) However, the building is very old and you smell smoke, pot etc in the hallways. The apartment itself could also have been a little cleaner. The parking spot was good for us, but I can definitely see people with a larger car having trouble even accessing the parking area. We paid roughly 30 €/ night for our stay. So overall we were happy with what we got for the price we paid.
Jun 27, 2019Location was spot on. Walked to everything. Perfect size and parking super handy. I highly reccomend!!
Jun 27, 2019Pour ceux qui arrivent de l'extérieur surtout en auto et veulent rester au Centre ville avec un stationnement inclus très facile d'accès, c'est vraiment bien comme endroit. C'est sécuritaire. Tout est à proximité c'est vraiment un emplacement pratique. A retourner sans aucun doute.
Jun 27, 2019This was my first experience renting with Airbnb and Ben was great at replying to my questions. The place was as expected and was perfect for what we needed. Right around the corner from many restaurants and shops and within a 45 minute walk of most of the main tourist destinations. Thanks Ben!
Jun 27, 2019Bien situé. Piscine et sauna accessibles. Logement plutôt tranquille. Difficile à trouver le stationnement intérieur.
Jun 27, 2019The place is as described. The parking is the selling point of this airbnb. If you are traveling alone with a car, you may have to double park for a few minutes while you run up and grab the garage keys and return to your car. Unfortunately, the hallway leading up to the apartment reeked of cigarette smoke 24-7. I understand this is out of the control of the airbnb host, but if you're sensitive to this smell or have bad asthma, this may be an issue for you. The apt itself kept most of the fumes out. The location was perfect and was walking distance to many great restaurants.
Jun 27, 2019Appartement bien situé. Proche du métro et de la rue Sainte Catherine. Idéal pour visiter la ville. Le seul reproche que je peux faire concerne le ménage ainsi que les mauvaises odeurs provenant du couloir.
Jun 27, 2019Clean apartment in a great location. Ben was easy to communicate with, and check-in / check-out were extremely easy.
Jun 27, 2019Located very good in the middle of Montreal, easy to go to all tourist places from there. Only big issue was with the parking garage. We could not enter it with our car as it was too big. Max car height can only be around 1.78m. We had to park a few blocks away and pay for it extra what wasn’t nice as we choose this apartment in first place because it has parking included.
Jun 27, 2019Ben is quick to respond and his place is close to the metro. It's clean too! Don't be discouraged if you smell any smoke, it's the other units. Just open the window and the scent quickly disappears. I have bad allergies and was concerned about this at first, but it wasn't in any of the linens or couch.
Jun 27, 2019Ben’s place was exactly what we were looking for. Good area, metro close by, lots of places to eat and drink all within walking distance. Would recommend to anyone!
Jun 27, 2019This apartment is in a great location and provides everything you need to visit Montreal. Ben was responsive and the apartment was great. The on-site parking was very convenient as well.
Jun 27, 2019Logement très bien situé, proche métro, plusieurs restaurants. Température confortable, lit confortable. Excellentes communications avec Ben A. Stationnement gratuit sur place un atout dans ce secteur. Odeur bizarre dans le corridor pendant notre séjour, mais ok dans l’appartement.
Jun 27, 2019The best place ! so close to everything, right in downtown, highly recommended ! You will love it, we did !
Jun 27, 2019Apartment is basic and clean. Ben was very responsive to all questions. Check in was easy and instructions were clear. Parking spot was a HUGE plus as it can be costly to park if you have to drive everywhere. Apartment is in a great and safe location near the metro, restaurants and shopping. We walked everywhere. If I’m being picky, investing in little touches would be nice such as better quality towels and higher quality pillows. But as I said, accommodations were basic-not luxurious. Overall a good and very functional launching point to explore and experience Montreal.
Jun 27, 2019Thank you for being a great host ! we really enjoyed staying there, and we really loved Montreal ! What a great location it was !
Jun 27, 2019This place was just fantastic !!! Ben was an amazing host and did an amazing job communicating. Ben made it really easy for check in and did a fantastic job in making sure the place was clean, as well as making sure his guests were comfortable and all the essentials were met. The place was in a amazing location and was extremely close to metro stations. So it wasn’t hard at all to venture out into the city and find your way back. Overall, this place was great and I highly recommend it to any couple who is looking for a nice getaway to Montreal. Ben was an amazing host and you can’t ask for anything better.
Jun 27, 2019Ben was a great host especially with his communication with us. The location of his place is spot on & very convenient to get around town! Thanks Ben!
Jun 27, 2019Ben’s studio apartment was located in a great location. We were there during the extreme heat and the air conditioner worked perfectly at keeping the space cold. Parking was super easy as the space was a secured outside lot. (You could choose which space to park in). This is an apartment building. The common areas (hallways, elevators, lobby) are not clean. The shared laundry rooms, however, are super clean. Ben was quick to respond to any inquiries we had.
Jun 27, 2019The location is great, and the owner was very nice!
Jun 27, 2019The apartment was nicely appointed and clean and the location is amazing. The pool was under maintenance but Ben reimbursed us when I mentioned it to him.
Jun 27, 2019Well located beside the metro. Has a basic kitchen. Free parking for a standard car ( really big won't fit). Has a gym, pool and sauna although the pool was closed for repairs during our stay. Only issue we had was there is a lot of noise coming from the street due to one of the windows being jammed open to fit the air con machine. The next night we could drown some of that out by blasting the air con machine on full but still not the most quiet night sleep. Overall it was a good stay.
Jun 27, 2019We really enjoyed our stay in Ben’s little apartment. It was perfect for my wife and I. The air conditioning was a life saver in the Montreal summer heat. The apartment is in a great location making it easy to explore downtown Montreal on foot, or taking the metro. I also used the gym, which was a nice touch. There were a couple spots where the cleaning was overlooked in the kitchen, but it was no big deal for us. Ben is super quick to respond to messages, and check in was easy. We would gladly stay here again.
Jun 27, 2019My husband and I stayed in Ben’s apartment in downtown Montreal for 3 nights and we were happy with the location and the free parking. Ben was very responsive and provided clear, detailed instructions for check in/check out, parking and the building amenities. The apartment is close to shops, restaurants and public transportation. It’s also within walking distance of the biggest park in Montreal (Mont-Royal), which was a bonus. The neighborhood seemed safe; however, it is very noisy on the weekends! It seems like many college students live in this area, which is fine, but they can be extremely noisy in the building, hallways and on the street until the wee hours. The walls and windows in the building didn’t seem to be very insulated, so there was also a great deal of very loud street noise (cars, motorcycles, trucks, people shouting, etc.) The apartment itself is no-frills, but it suited our purposes for a few days. Since we stayed in the summer, we especially appreciated the air conditioning. The bathroom needs a little TLC, but was functional. I believe the bed was listed as a queen-size, but I think it’s one of the Ikea brand full/queen beds, and it definitely didn’t seem as large as our queen-sized bed at home. The kitchen was well-stocked with dishes, glasses, etc., and has a full-size refrigerator. Like other reviewers mentioned, we experienced the smell of smoke in the hallway outside the apartment, but had no problem inside the flat itself. The elevators worked well and were big enough for my husband’s mountain bike. Overall, the free parking and the location of this apartment outweighed the noise and the lack of fancy amenities. I would recommend Ben’s apartment.
Jun 27, 2019Easy check-in, parking and amenities a big plus for the price
Jun 27, 2019Emplacement idéale pour visiter Montréal, proche de toutes commodités, appartement propre et conforme aux descriptions de l’hôte. Je vous le recommande!
Jun 27, 2019Ben’s place is in a perfect location to enjoy the city of Montreal. It was great that it had parking and we fully enjoyed our stay. It’s a great Airbnb if you plan on being out during the day and using the airbnb as just a place to sleep. The only negative was that he had a slow response time to my messages, but once he answered everything went great.
Jun 27, 2019Très bien placé, bons équipements collectifs, dommage pour la piscine en travaux et un effort sur la propreté est à envisager, alors ce serait parfait, mais nous avons passé un bon et agréable séjour
Jun 27, 2019Amazing communication and immediate response times. The location was perfect. Communication is very important to me and Ben was extremely helpful when answering questions.
Jun 27, 2019Great Location that's it
Jun 27, 2019This place was great for its price and location. Nothing special just a clean place to sleep while enjoying Montreal. Unfortunately my truck was unable to fit in the parking so I needed to pay for parking.
Jun 27, 2019Très bien situé
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place was ideal for our short stay in Montreal. Well located for downtown and for Mont Royal Park. Nice apartment with everything we needed and Ben was responsive to any questions.
Jun 27, 2019Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans l'appartement de Ben A. L'appartement est bien situé et très propre, nous n'avons manqué de rien. Il dispose d'une place de parking très pratique. L'immeuble dans lequel se situe l'appartement dispose gratuitement d'une grande piscine, d'un sauna, d'une salle de squash et une salle de sport. Ben A est très réactif, ses explications pour notre arrivée dans l'appartement étaient très claires et précises. Nous recommandons sans problème l'appartement de Ben A pour un séjour à Montreal.
Jun 27, 2019My parents are seniors and I booked Ben's place for their short stay in Montreal. This review is on their behalf They loved Ben's place and found it to be convenient, clean and perfect location. They found Ben to be polite, very accommodating and quick to respond to any questions or requests they had. Thank you Ben for being such a great host!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's place was very clean and quiet. He was very accommodating and communicative and I would definitely stay there again.
Jun 27, 2019The location of this Air bnb is great however I do feel it came up short on many aspects. The suite was not clean. The bathroom was the worst. The sink didn't drain well and had a terrible smell, the bath mat had hair and nail clippings in it. The shower curtain was brown at the bottom from not being cleaned. The plug to the tub was completely brown and disgusting. Bathing was out of the question. There was two very small toliet papers left that made us have to go purchase more along with soap. The baseboard through out the suite are thick with dust. The kitchen had a dirty stove and fridge. The kitchen is not equiped with the essentials if a person wanted to cook. No cookies sheets for example hardly any utensils. The couch is not comfortable and it had crumbs on it when we arrived. It is listed there are candles but they were completely burnt and the lighter did not work. We purchased our own because the suite bathroom sink had that bad smell. I will say Ben was good with communication and clear with details how to get into the suite. I think this suite has great potential if it was cleaned. I didn't expect amazing for the price but I did expect it to be clean.
Jun 27, 2019If you want to see Montreal, this is the apartment for you! Nicely appointed with everything you need to make your stay perfect. Easy walking to the downtown area, or a few minutes to the Guy-Concordia metro station if you prefer. An abundance of places to eat within 5 minutes. Grocery stores, parking... If you like to cook, walk 20 mins to the Atwater Market for gourmet everything; detour on the way to see the pretty rue Coursol houses. If your shopping is heavy, come back by metro from Lionel-Groulx station.
Jun 27, 2019Ben responded quick to my messages and gave clear and easy check in instructions. The location was great, walkable to restaurants and metro. Highly recommended!
Jun 27, 2019there is better
Jun 27, 2019Central et stationnement vraiment pratique.
Jun 27, 2019Great value for money in a central location.
Jun 27, 2019Ben’s place was great! The apartment was just enough space for what we needed for the long weekend. The only thing that was an adjustment for us not being city people was the noise at night while sleeping, but that comes with staying in any city. Having the convenient store right across the street was a huge plus, along with the free parking. For the money that we paid for 3 nights and free parking to not have to worry about driving was definitely worth it. The location was (Website hidden by Airbnb) was very easy to walk to everything including Crescent street (5 mins away) where there were many bars and restaurants to pick from. Can’t forget about the Netflix being a huge plus too! I would definitely recommend. Thank you Ben!
Jun 27, 2019Amazing location and a great apartment for renting! The building and the room are kept clean and having a parking space was great as well. I would recommend this apartment for anyone who is looking to stay in Montreal in downtown.
Jun 27, 2019The space suited our needs well. Very clean and well located in the city. Loved having off street parking availability! Would definitely use the space again.
Jun 27, 2019Place was fine, check in was easy, but it was freezing cold. Heater was not working and it would not get warm in the place. We were visiting from the states and we did not have data so internet was important for us--the internet kept going in and out so we could not get a steady connection to research.
Jun 27, 2019O apartamento é bem localizado, mas não estava limpo. Tivemos de cancelar a nossa hospedagem.
Jun 27, 2019Close to everything. Very good value for the price. Quiet and safe location with parking
Jun 27, 2019Good location. Ok value.
Jun 27, 2019really nice place! I will definitely come back next year!
Jun 27, 2019Ben's condo is perfectly situated in the heart of downtown Montreal. The space is just as seen in the pictures; however, the shower is very small and the washroom fan does not work. Also, there is a funky smell in the hallway but other than that, it was a beautiful stay. It was very clean and spacious enough for my partner and I. We also had access to the condo's pool, gym, and squash court which was awesome! Free parking was also a bonus! We would definitely stay here again. :)
Jun 27, 2019It’s a great location, Ben was a very good host. He responded to messages very quick. Value was great too.
Jun 27, 2019fabulous experience
Jun 27, 2019There were stains on every piece of fabric, the sheets were dirty, there were only two towels provided and they were old and ratty. The building needed a lot of maintenance. The walls were so thin you could hear the phone vibrating next door. There was also a little yappy dog next door that barked almost constantly. The hallway smells strongly of smoke amongst other things. The drinking glasses were broken. The furniture was rather cheap and extremely basic. The balcony had trash and cigarette buds strewn on it. There was mildew in the shower. This was not worth $75 a night plus the steep cleaning fee. I’ve never left a bad review before but this place was so disappointing! The free parking, easy check in, and close proximity to the metro and Tim Horton’s were nice.
Jun 27, 2019Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Ben's place. The location is great and it was one of the more budget-friendly options. The reviews were so good I think our expectations were a little too high. In retrospect, we should have known there would be some compromises. The building is not so nice once you get past the lobby. The elevators and hallways often smelled of cigarettes and generally didn't seem very clean. The apartment itself was dark and had a slightly musty smell. It was clean except for some crumbs on the floor and couch, and the bedding which didn't look like it had been washed. We asked for it to be replaced, though, and Ben took care of it quickly while we were out for dinner. Ultimately, the apartment didn't get in the way of enjoying the city and we had a little extra money left over to spend elsewhere.
Jun 27, 2019Great space for me and my significant other. Perfect location, and parking was secure and convenient.
Jun 27, 2019Ben was a fantastic host and very helpful. My biggest issue about the place: very very loud with very thin walls. Screaming neighbours and dogs barking until early in the morning. Otherwise clean and easy and Ben was great.
Jun 27, 2019This studio is in a great location! It is perfect for a couple who is visiting and doesn’t plan on spending their entire time inside the studio, but needs a cozy space to check back in, take a break throughout the day, and relax at the end of the day. Ben provided very clear and detailed instructions! I had a lovely time.
Jun 27, 2019Well, here is a thing, I've gave one star to this entire place and to cleanliness due to issues with bedroom sheets. They do not change it. And the whole bed and sheets had odours of sweat, some body smell and on top of those "reach" smells the cover of some deodorant of perfume - it might be used instead of washing the sheets or it might be just additional flowering from the previous dozens of clients. So why 1 point? Because this is apparently a "tradition" at this place not to change sheets and not to hear the customers - the same issue was already addressed in the comments and here we are at the same point and nothing was done. Finding it as a real disrespectful attitudes towards the clients, especially when the same issue was already addressed by other people, but the owner still kept the same "tradition" not to change the sheets. And in addition, same place charged me 49 CAD for cleaning fees when the cost of the place per night was 31 CAD. So it is 61.25% of the whole price for cleaning. I think they could take 3$ for the sheet's washing from those 49CAD, but they didn't.. -- *Additional thing to keep in mind, that the apartment is in the centre of Montreal and the windows are not really built with good sound isolation, so you might hear all the sounds of the street even during the night. Hope the review will change the attitude of the owner towards his customers .
Jun 27, 2019Ben A flat was quiet and secure with the Metro near by. The restaurants and bars one block walk away. Parking on site available for cars only with maximum height of 70". We had a great stay and would recommend unit for 2 or 3 people.
Jun 27, 2019Très bien située mais très bruyant.
Jun 27, 2019Rien à dire ! Propre, accessible et simplement partait.
Jun 27, 2019Second time i come to this location but jot the same appartment. Place is quite standard but nice, convenient and close to busy ste catherine street. Communication with Ben was easy, wifi bandwidth to weak but rest was ok. I would come back.
Jun 27, 2019Everything went smoothly from checking in to parking to find the location. The location was right in the heart of downtown Montreal and everything was in walking distance. The Airbnb had a pool, roof top terence, Netflix and parking. Would definitely stay here again!
Jun 27, 2019Great location, nice to be able to have parking included and have the car at a safe place, especially in the winter, making sure it is not getting towed. Functional apartment, we did not check out or used any of the extra amenities, so I cant say much about this. But the Apartment was perfect for a nice get away montreal weekend, enjoied the jazz club around the corner and all was good, clean and there. Thank you
