Neighborhood Overview
I lived in many neighbourhoods in Montreal and I believe this one is the most agreeable for its proximity with the St. Lawrence River and the Lachine Rapids (that you can ride with jet boating or rafting), the biking and running paths, the parks nearby that make you forget that you are so close to the city, and the close distance to both downtown and the airport (we are basically midway between the airport and downtown). Wellington Street has many types of restaurants and cafés,
Notes
The apartment is fully equipped, including a washer-dryer that you can use to wash your clothes, a dish washer, and air-conditioning in the kitchen and the small bedroom.
Transit
The bus stop #58 is 200 meters away and from there it takes 9 minutes to get to subway station De L'Eglise on the green line, which takes you to downtown Montreal in 10 to 15 minutes, depending on which station you exit. Another option during summer is to rent a Bixi bike (the closest station is 200 meters away) and ride all the way to downtown, staying on reserved bike paths almost all the way. This will take you about 30-40 minutes, again depending on your destination. Or you can take the Bixi up to the subway station (about 13 minutes).
Access
You will have exclusive use of the entire apartment. We use an electronic lock so that you won't need to keep the apartment keys with you. At the time of reservation, please tell us which 4 digits of your choice you would like to use and I will program them in advance of your arrival.

Rules
This is a familial neighbourhood with young families living on each side of the apartment and so no noisy partying will be tolerated. PLEASE READ: Unfortunately, once in a while, I host a group which comes in late from a party and starts speaking loudly in the apartment, disturbing everyone around them. In that case, I will issue a single warning and then retain the security deposit if the group doesn't quiet down. Thanks for your understanding.

Great place with an even greater host! Carlos was very thorough in making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The apartment is in a wonderful location. It's the 2nd house up from the water on a quiet street. Bike paths following the water are a wonderful place to run, bike and walk. The apartment has a newly renovated kitchen & bathroom. The kitchen has great quality pots & pans, a drip coffee maker and a Krups pump espresso machine for us caffeine addicts. The wall AC unit was great and will be very useful in the summer months. The non-renovated floors are a bit creaky, giving you an authentic Montreal feel. All in all a wonderful place with a wonderful host.
Jun 27, 2019Carlos is an excellent host and he did everything to make you feel comfortable.
Jun 27, 2019i loved the apartment everything was clean and in its place. The neighborhood is great, very nice neighbors and you feel safe. Carlos was a great host and there to answer your questions when you needed him to find you way around. thank you so much Carlos...
Jun 27, 2019Our accommodation on Clemenceau was exactly as described and as pictured in the photographs. The apartment was very, very clean, and incredibly quiet. The pictures do not do the kitchen and bathroom justice; they were both beautifully renovated. The kitchen was well equipped. We we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was excellent for anyone who enjoys cycling or walking; only steps from the riverfront trail and bird sanctuary. There is a public swimming pool within walking distance that is very cool. Although the apartment is not located in the heart of Montreal, there is a bus stop a few minutes away with a short ride to the Metro (subway) to take you downtown. Getting to the heart of Montreal is easy by car. There was ample street parking. Our host, Carlos was downstairs and was very amenable. We would recommend this accommodation.
Jun 27, 2019The house is exactly as advertised, in my opinion this is a unique house. The house combines, historic charm - Wood floors and antique cupboards etc, and upgraded kitchen and bathroom, which are absolutely wonderful. The Location of the house is also great, it is right next to st Lawrence river, which is also perk. Ample parking is available on the street. Had a great stay, would recommend to friends and family.
Jun 27, 2019Thank you so much to Carlos for making our experience to Montreal so great. My Kids love his place and it is just across the street for a Beautiful park. we rent bikes and enjoyed the sun. The apartment is bright, has an eclectic mix of antique-style furniture and a very comfy beds. it is roomy and well-stocked. Kitchen & Bathroom is recently upgraded and real brand new. Carlos was quick to respond to all my messages & very helpful. Really we didn't need much during the stay as just about everything was ready and available. It was a pleasure to stay in his place and I would certainly come back. Would definitely recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Très bel appartement, correspond à la description. La localisation est parfaite dans un quartier calme, au bord du St. Laurent et assez proche de Downtown Montréal. L'hôte s'est bien soucié du bon déroulement de notre séjour. Ce logement est vraiment à conseiller!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos's apartment is one of my best airbnb experience ever. There are two spacious bedrooms with comfy beds and one queen- sofa bed, which was better than described. It's very very clean and well maintenance.The kitchen and bathroom is very nice and clean. The plus is surrounding area is very nice during the summer time. Carlos was very responsive and helpful. He even brought us an iron in the evening upon asking. We have a very good time stayed in his place. Thank you so much.
Jun 27, 2019Prompt response and very courteous.
Jul 27, 2019Perfect location by the lake side. 20 mins to the old town and same distances to Sherbrooke at. Nice deco of kitchen and bathroom. Carlos provided lots of usefully information. Good choices of staying here.
Jun 27, 2019This is a beautiful and spacious apartment with brand new kitchen and bathroom. If you have a car it is the perfect location as it is close to a beautiful river, to a mall, to a supermarket and to the subway station. It is a very quiet and family oriented area. You leave your car at the subway station and in 15 min you are downtown, Montreal. We loved the convenience.
Jun 27, 2019My husband and I stayed here for about a week while kayaking in the lachine rapids. It was an amazing stay. The apartment was spacious and clean. The location was beyond perfect. After a day of surfing we could simply take out and walk across the street to the house. This is probably one of the best air bnb listings for Montreal. Carlos was responsive, accommodating and super nice.
Jun 27, 2019This is the perfect place to stay in Montreal. Lovely, well-appointed apartment, very clean & comfortable in a quiet neighborhood by the river. Carlos is the perfect host - he made sure everything was OK when we arrived and let us know he was readily available if we needed anything. Flexible check in/out made this a completely stress-free experience for our family.
Jun 27, 2019This House is very nice on a good location. 15 mins driving to downtown. It is very clean. Carlos is very kind and quick to my question. He had prepared everything for living. I had a pleasant time in this house. I hope to reserve again for my next trip in Montreal and also recommend it to my friends
Jun 27, 2019Carlos was a caring and welcoming host. He was available in person, by phone or e-mail in case we needed anything. The apartment was a gem. It was a wonderful blend of the old and the new. The kitchen and bathroom were modern; both were very well-equipped. The in-heat flooring was great. We loved the view of the river and park from the front balcony and living room window. The apartment is away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Montreal and is in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We were impressed by how clean the apartment was. It was spotlessly clean; everything, everywhere. My family loved the apartment and we would recommend it and Carlos highly.
Jun 27, 2019Séjour très agréable chez Carlos. L'appartement est charmant, confortable, et très bien équipé. On a apprécié la tranquillité des lieux et la proximité du fleuve, magnifique à cet endroit. Accueil sympathique de notre hôte. On recommande sans hésitation!
Jun 27, 2019Loved the place, neat and clean. nice view of river. Awsome weather. Calm place to spend your holidays.
Jun 27, 2019Perfekt quiet Place,very sweet Appartement and a super host. If you have the chance,please book! We were 3 persons, stay 2 nights. Everything was perfekt!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos was an excellent host. He was very helpful, and I felt very much at ease because he lived in the apartment below and checked in via text throughout the stay to make sure everything was okay. The apartment was very spacious and had all the amenities one could need.
Jun 27, 2019Carlos fut un hôte formidable et accueillant. L'appartement est tel que décrit. Tout y est, c'est parfait. Bien équipé et propre. Le quartier est formidable, tranquille, et les accès au transport collectif et bixi à proximité. Collé sur la piste cyclable, vue sur le fleuve. On a trouvé à stationné en face facilement. Pour les amateurs, il est possible de kayaker à proximité.
Jun 27, 2019The location of this place is fantastic, one of the best i've been to. It's very clean and it felt great. Would recommend to everyone.
Jun 27, 2019The host, Carlos, had his beautifully appointed place ready for us and invited us to leave our suitcases even though we arrived early. He had suggestions for food, activities and shopping. The neighborhood is clean, beautiful and accessible for walking, running and biking. We wish we could have had a longer stay!
Jun 27, 2019We had a terrific 2-night stay in Carlos' apartment. There's a terrific park across the street that follows the river, and it's near Metro stations to help transport you around the City without driving. With all the construction going on, it was great to take buses and the Metro (on a day pass). Carlos' place is well-equipped with all that you'll need, and communication with him was excellent. A great "home away from home"!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos é stato davvero un super host! Ho passato due settimane nel suo fantastico appartamento insieme ad una mia amica e non potrebbe essere andata meglio di così! Carlos é stato davvero disponibile per ogni tipo di problema e soprattutto molto gentile con noi. Ci ha consigliato dove acquistare buona parte delle cose per la casa è come muoverci per la cittá, cosa molto semplice dal suo appartamento. La casa é in un quartiere residenziale molto tranquillo, ma in 30 minuti con autobus e metro si arriva in centro dove si trova di tutto. Consiglio a tutti!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos est un hôte attentif et réactif. Il nous a contacté avant le séjour pour nous donner toutes les indications facilitant notre arrivée. Son appartement est situé dans une zone résidentielle très agréable, à 100 m d'une magnifique promenade sur les rives du Saint Laurent. L'appartement est joli, bien agencé et bien décoré, la cuisine est magnifique et super bien équipée. L' A/C dans la cuisine est suffisamment puissant pour rafraichir tout le logement. Nous n'avons pas rencontré Carlos mais il s'est tenu à notre disposition à tout moment pendant notre séjour un peu trop court. Une belle découverte, merci Carlos.
Jul 27, 2019The host was very friendly and helpful. The kitchen and bathroom were beautifully renovated, very clean and spotless With lots of linens and towels. The only issue we had was the futon and sofa bed which were uncomfortable to sleep. We were in this apartment in hot days and A/C in the kitchen was not enough. The host also provided 2 more portable A/Cs. Although they were noisy but helped a lot .
Jun 27, 2019Carlos is an extremely friendly and helpful host, he gave us lots of informations and he helped us in a bag delay problem. The flat is very clean and full of every furniture you need. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe, there are enough bars and shops to have everything close. Montreal downtown is about 15mins by car (we didn't take any public transport but there were a tube station very close to the apartment). Super recommended!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos met us at the door and was very welcoming, informative and helpful. The apartment was very clean, well equipped, comfortable and well positioned for the sight seeing we planned to do.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment was exactly as advertised. My family and I enjoyed our stay immensely, especially the neighbourhood, which is beautiful, with the water and parks so close by. Carlos was welcoming and very helpful throughout our stay.
Jun 27, 2019The place was fantastic and Carlos was a very hospitable host! The place was clean, spacious and had everything we needed for the stay. Great location near lots of amenities and parks. If we ever come back to Montreal, we would book this space again. Highly recommended!

Jun 27, 2019Carlos apartment was very clean and so quiet environment. All you need for a short or long stay there is at the apartment. And at last, Carlos is the best host that I ever seen.

Jun 27, 2019Carlos was a wonderful host! He paid attention to detail, and was easily accessible. Everything was ready to go for our arrival, and he even left toiletries for our stay. He left a thoughtful gift for our honeymoon stay and made us feel like we were at home.

Jun 27, 2019Carlos is the nicest host you can find! Immediate on replies and very helpful. Apt itself is spacious, two bedrooms and like two dining rooms (or one but just huge). Kitchen is fully equiped and even more... heated floore is awesome! Apt's located in peacefull, calm area. Very close to water and parks. 2 minutes to the bus stop. But better consider this apt with a car if you want to go to downtown every day. We enjoyed our staying there. Thank you Carlos!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos is a wonderful host and he communicates really well. His condo is clean and had fully stocked kitchen and located in wonderful residential area with easy access to public park and river. My kids loved walking and riding bicycle at the park. The condo is also located close to downtown Montreal with easy access to the town. We really enjoyed our stay and we would definitely visit again.
Jun 27, 2019In our 3 weeks journey through Canada, this appartmemt was the best we stayed at. Highly recommended! Carlos is a very sympathetic and helpful host. Appartment is top equipped with everything needed; all clean and cosy. Location is beautifull, close to river and park. To town: car, bike !, or metro, all possible.
Jun 27, 2019Great stay. All the amenities, prompt response, nice quiet street. Highly recommended!
Jun 27, 2019Carlos is awesome and very sweet. Highly recommend.
Jun 27, 2019A clean cosy apartment and Carlos is an ideal host - responsive, cordial and helpful. He helped us by providing Metro cards for our use which was most appreciated - the apartment is a few bus stops from a Metro station so the cards enabled us to use public transport and the underground. The apartment is warm, comfortable and 200 yards from the river.
Jun 27, 2019The place is great and exactly as described. Nice green space basically across the street and close to most amenities. Taking public transit downtown was a breeze. Carlos was extremely quick responding to inquiries. Would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks Carlos!
Jun 27, 2019We spent 2 nights at Carlos' nice apartment, and took full advantage of all the unusual highlights that the neighborhood offers: jogging along the Lachine rapids, cycling to Montreal downtown using the Bixi bikes, dancing at the public dance floor at the St Lorence river. Carlos is very welcoming and made our stay comfortable. The apartment is exactly as described, very clean and convenient. For a special Montreal experience by bike this is the ideal place to stay.
Jun 27, 2019Bel appartement, très propre, bien situé, près du fleuve et des transports. Hôte très gentil.
Jun 27, 2019Excellent séjour à Montréal en grande partie grâce à l’appartement de Carlos. Plusieurs points à souligner : 1) bien situé, juste au bord de la rivière Saint Lawrence avec plein d’activités dans la verdure, en complément d’un paysage à la fois reposant et pittoresque; 2) déco très agréable et équipement de la cuisine très complet et il y a tout ce qu’il faut dans la SDB comme à la maision; 3) prise USB pour la recharge, très appréciée par les visiteurs français (surtout par ceux sans adaptateur de prise de courant); 4) clim disponible dans chaque pièce, incontournable pendant la canicule ; 5) facilité de transport en commun, bus 58 et ensuite métro à proximité ; 6) il est également simple de se garer dans la rue où se situe l’appartement et last but not least la réactivité et la disponibilité de l’hôte. On le recommande définitivement !
Jun 27, 2019Great apartment in a beautiful location. Right on the river. The place is great, well appointed, and Carlos is a gracious host. Highly recommended!
Jun 27, 2019Exceptionally clean, comfortable, well stocked kitchen. Carlos is a excellent communicator. High recommended!
Jun 27, 2019We had a great time staying at Carlos’s place - the property is just as advertised & shown in the photos. It is very close to the riverside where you can walk or cycle. The included bikes are great & we used them to cycle in to the old town one day - it took around 45 mins but it was a very leisurely cycle. There is also public transport very near by & I would definitely recommend leaving the car at the house. All in all I would not hesitate in recommending this property to anyone.
Jun 27, 2019Located not far from downtown in a quiet community. Steps away from St. Lawrence. About 1 km to the Rapids Park. Spacious appartment.
Jun 27, 2019Carlos’ place is exactly as described. Awesome appartment with all amenities with a great location for bikes, walks, paddleboard. Biking distance to Old Port. Very very clean. We will go back for sure!
Jun 27, 2019Clean, well appointed full sized kitchen, plenty of space in a nice quiet neighbourhood. Modern bath with skylight. Highly recommended.
