The location was perfect for our needs and the space was clean. Take note that it is a basement apartment so there aren’t any windows and there is very little soundproofing from the upstairs. Those staying on the ground floor were courteous and quiet, but you can hear every movement and sound. I was also surprised there was no shampoo or body wash, but on closer review, it didn’t mark that as an amenity, so bring your own." (8/5) - **Aurore Carbonell**: "Bon appartement dans la globalité, propre, début difficile à comprendre pour l’arrivée, pas très bien expliqué mais bien par la suite. Métro à 20 min à pied. Par contre, manque d’équipement concernant la cuisine, Clim difficile qui soufflait que du froid malgré toutes les tentatives de la faire fonctionner. Concernant la literie, matelas extrêmement dur et seulement un pauvre drap (ce qui sert de « couverture » est aussi épais qu’un bout de tissu)."
