The location was perfect. Easy access to everything by foot or Metro. Also right across the street from a stunning, huge park. The place was very quiet! Not much to look at on the outside, but perfect fine on the inside. Would stay again.

Nice clean and tidy property, good location,didn’t see any staff was given access codes for front door and then room which was fine. Nice communal area for tea and breakfast cereal / milk / coffee supplied. Aircon in room was a lifesaver as it was a heatwave!

It is not quite a bed and breakfast place, but we enjoyed coming in and going out unannounced. There was no front reception or a lobby per se. We liked our seamless stay with keypad entry and Irish goodbye. We would highly likely to stay here again. The room was tidy with everything we needed.

Lovely little B&B near a large park. Many different restaurants, pubs and cafés within a 5 to 10 minute walk. The owner was very quick to answer all questions and assist us with any needs. You can have a breakfast of cereal with coffee or tea, but there is also a café very close that provides a full breakfast at a reduced price, and great Guatemalan coffee. The room and bathroom was spotless with everything we needed. We will definitely stay again when in Montreal.

This is the first B&B I stayed. I have to say it met my expectation of a 3* hotel I would normally stay. Communication was great and on prompt. I felt safe accepting this location safe just how promptly my questions were answered.
Luckly, other room occupants also very quiet, considerate and kept the place neat. I would stay here again.

We had a comfortable stay at Chez Francois. Our room faced the street, but was surprisingly quiet. Access to the park was lovely, and we enjoyed walking in the Plateau neighborhood nearby. This place is not convenient the Metro, however.

If you are looking for a bed and breakfast, keep looking. There is no breakfast included just a shared kitchen. Coffee tea and dried cereal were provided. The balcony could use some tlc. The room itself was good but definitely could have been cleaner. There was layer of dust on the bathroom fan so thick i was scared to turn it on.
