Maison Rasco by Luxury In Transit

Spouse and I were in Montreal for our son's graduation and we changed to Maison Rasco at the last minute and what a great decision! Good location in Old Port, a short walk from Champ de Mars metro. Some street noise at night (trucks and tipsy tourists), but we were there during the week - thinking the weekend could be noisier. Our neighbours in the building, however, were quiet (we didn't even see anyone else in the hall or elevator). We could hear a few footsteps overhead, but we were the only suite on our end of the floor so did not have to put up with anyone else's slamming door or hallway noise. The suite itself was very nice, modern and looked new - not a lot of wear and tear. It was nicely climate controlled, had a very comfortable bed, huge closet with suitcase rack, ironing board and iron, washer/dryer (!!), a very nice kitchen (full sized fridge, oven/stove, dishwasher, and - HALLELUJAH - unscratched pots and pans (amazing find if you're like me and tend to bring your own frying pan on trips because most rentals' cookware is scratched, gross, and unusable). The only tiny thing that would make it better would be to have a small stash of essentials for cooking- a few packs of sugar, basic seasonings, and a little spray oil (I paid $5 for a small stick of butter at the Dep), etc, but otherwise, this is one of the nicest places I've stayed in in Montreal recently.

No fault of the hotel's but there isn't a convenient full service grocery store nearby - we ended up buying from "Depanneur M-Y Bonsecour" a block away, which had almost everything we needed, but it would've been nice to have a little cheat sheet in the room about where to find local food shops, patisseries, cafes, etc. On our last day, I found delicious croissants and bagels in an unmarked basement shop called La Cave a Manger in the Bonsecours Market, which is right across the street. But all down St. Paul, you will find a wide range of restaurants.

Windows don’t open in the apartment. Noisy during the day.

Son emplacement et la décoration

J’aurais aimé pouvoir laisser mes bagages dans un emplacement sécuritaire après notre départ de la chambre à 11:00 pour pouvoir aller marcher dans les environs car notre départ en autobus était plus tard dans la journée.

la localisation idéale a 2 pas de la place Jacques cartier, le calme du lieu, et l espace et confort literie

Emplacement excellent, assez proches du métro et de plusieurs sites à visiter. Climatisation. Cuisine assez bien organisée. Cadre sécurisé et silencieux, malgré la vitalité de la vie nocturne.

Le logement ne correspondait pas à celui proposé sur booking. Poussière et petits restes du client précédent sur le tapis. L'équipement des outils de la salle de bain ne sont pas specialement performants. La gérance impersonnelle, gérée à distance risque d'échapper à une clientèle non numérisée.

L'emplacement, la propreté,

Spectacular location in the heart of Old Montreal - Rue Saint-Paul. Easy access (i.e., walking distance) to many of the city's attractions. For us it was especially convenient as we took a cruise departing from the Grand Quay of the Port of Montreal; just 10 minutes away. Must also point out the excellent communication from the property host and the availability of a washer and dryer (on the same floor as the unit at no extra charge).

N/A. All was perfect.

This place is a gem! I cannot wait to come back and stay here again. The location is the best and I felt so safe. You are within steps of all the action. Communication is great and it was easy from the start. And the history of the location - if the walls could talk. It was very quiet and bright, with huge windows.

I just could have used some hangers but other than that it was amazing.
