The Space:
You cannot beat this location in the Bohemian, youthful Le Plateau neighborhood. It’s a prime spot if you’re looking for fun in Montreal, as it’s a great area for nightlife in the center of the city, and you’ll be able to walk everywhere. Plus, the picturesque streets of this neighborhood will delight your senses at every turn. This location is where everyone coming to Montreal wants to be!
Parties are not allowed, but you may have music without worrying about disturbing neighbours, as the unit is not close to residential units. The unit is also walking distance to a variety of restaurants and clubs.
This is a great place if you are planning to enjoy the city's nightlife. Expect noise from the surrounding clubs and bars on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights, typically until around 2:00 AM. If you are travelling with young children or if you are a light sleeper, this might not be the best property for you on a weekend, but we have other apartments in Le Plateau.
Comfortable 2-bedroom apartment, kitchen, bathroom, and generous sleeping arrangements with 2 double beds in each bedroom (accommodates up to 8 guests). Perfect for groups of friends looking to experience Montreal together.
