Guest Reviews

• PIRET (10/5): - Très beau logement
• Amir (9/5): -
• Faeze (10/5): Great value for money - Everything is great. There’s easy access to various tourist spots and coffee shops. The couch is also very comfortable.
• Xavier (10/5): -
• Sunny (9/5): - The hosts were responsive. The apartment was neat and tidy, and best it had underground parking with it.
• Dorothee (8/5): -
• ELENA (9/5): - Les équipements La déco La communication avec l’hote Parking couvert privé Un peu décentré mais avec la voiture et surtout le parking tout était joignable facilement
• Howard (8/5): A convenient and comfortable apartment close to restaurants and with basement parking. - A comfortable apartment in a building full of similar apartments, within a few minutes walk of shops and restaurants. Secure basement parking is included. Nothing.
• Dhoble (9/5): -
• MING YUNG (9/5): -
• Marie-Caroline (8/5): -
• MARYANNICK (10/5): - L appartement est très propre, bien équipé, bien situé et proche des bus. Je recommande vraiment cet établissement
• Kieran (8/5): - Nice clean well laid out apartment. Being told repeatedly to remove the bedsheets, paid nearly $300 for a night. We didn't pay hostel rates. A few scuffs on the walls. No regular sized ironing board.
• Simon (6/5): - Le parking en sous sol Logement lumineux et spacieux La climatisation Cuisine bien équipée Nous avons eu la surprise de trouver la femme de ménage en train de travailler après l'heure du check-in, qui a semblé paniquée et nous a demandé de revenir plus tard. Quand nous avons pris le logement, nous avons constaté qu'il n'était pas propre et qu'un ménage de surface seulement avait été réalisé. Il y avait de la poussière su les plinthes, les luminaires, les bords de décoration. Nous avons trouvé de la nourriture derrière la poubelle, des bouchons d'oreilles usagés sur le sol, des détritus a côté des tables de nuit. Quand nous avons alerté la propriétaire, il n'y a pas eu de retour, il a fallu que nous la relancions au bout de 2 jours pour qu'elle réponde et nous propose un nouveau ménage, la vieille de notre de départ. Enfin le linge de toilette est de propreté douteuse . Nous avons dû les relaver avec notre propre lessive car il y avait 3 bidons de lessive sur place mais vides ou dilués avec de l'eau ... Nous avons refusé la proposition de ménage de fond car c'était la vieille de notre départ et cela 'etait pas approprié avec nos affaires. On se demande si la femme de ménage bénéficie de suffisamment de temps pour travailler et des équipements/produits nécessaires pour bien le réaliser. Le rapport qualité prix n'y est pas a cause de cela. Nous remarquons que ce type de commentaires reviennent régulièrement.
• Roberta (8/5): Fab condo. Well equipped. Good space. Food shops handy nearby. - Easy digital check-in. Clear instructions. Key codes made it really easy. Half an hour's walk from city centre. Good info in the condo. There weren't blackout blinds in the living room so whoever slept on the sofa bed tended to get woken up early due to light levels.
• Marion (8/5): Spacious, comfortable, well located apartment in a central - Located on main road but quiet in the apartment other than temporary building works outside which can’t be helped. Decent location- 30 minute walk into main attractions in old Quebec City and plenty of food and shopping options nearby. Spacious, comfortable apartment. Some cleanliness issues with kitchen utensils and in bathroom but host responded promptly and helpfully when raised and otherwise apartment including bedding and towels was clean. Felt safe and secure for our family of five. Great shower. Minor cleanliness issues which I am sure will be rectified. Perhaps a little more consideration of utensils for those guests who prefer to cook.
• reynald (8/5): - Modern et épure avec place de parking
• Ann (7/5): It was a decent location, a little weary about the beds as the sheets were not clean. - We liked the location of the property. We liked the layout of the 2 bedroom condo but there was construction on the main road while we were there and they were working early in the morning. The bedsheets were not cleaned, we found hairs on them. We did not have water on the first day which we know is not the fault of the owners, but it was tough to travel with 2 kids and not be able to give them a shower when we arrived. The couch was also uncomfortable to sit on but we didn't stay inside too long. Otherwise, it was decent spot to stay if for a short time.
• Maria (8/5): Very good -
• Anne (10/5): Cute apartment, conveniently located - Cute apartment with great amenities. Well provisioned kitchen. We stayed in the winter so couldn't take advantage of the neat balcony. The location was convenient for getting into and out of the city.
• Fernando (8/5): Excellent location and amenities! Needs more attention to cleanliness and details. - The location was EXCELLENT. Close to many restaurants, boulangeries, cafes, stores, and anything you need within walking distance, far yet close enough to tourist sights. Good size for family of 3: 2 bed 1 bath. Appliances were in good shape and working condition, windows were somewhat openable and got good fresh air draft. Building was secure and comfortable. Parking in the basement was great: assigned spot and big enough for our needs. The rental is well thought out for the traveler! Signs of underinvestment and neglect of the apartment unit: curtains are undersized for the window, they allowed light in because they are too small. Washer smelled very moldy because it was not cleaned and aired out properly for years it seems, dust and hair all over the apartment when we first entered, as if the cleaning company just cursory rushed through the cleaning. We found hairs in the bed sheets and all over the floor in the bathroom and living room.
• Murray (8/5): Very good - Good setup Blinds in the bedrooms need to be cleaned
• Enrique (8/5): Great apartment, good location and confortable for families - It is a fully equipped and comfortable apartment, with a great location and functional building. Street can be noisy at times
• Monika (10/5): I highly recommend the Cocoon. It was a peasure to be there during our stay in Quebec City. - It was a joy to be staying in the Cocoon. Email communications from the host were very clear, easy to understand and follow. Arrival and departure went smoothly. We especially liked the recommendations of restaurants. Great! Thank you for all!! First I was uneasy about the traffic on the Boul. Jean Charest until I realised that it went really quiet during the night. The only disturbances came from some homeless people congregating in the neighbourhood who were sometimes shouting late at night, but I never felt uneasy or threatened by them while walking around during the day. Just the reality of a big city, sadly.
• James (9/5): Superb -
• Brenda (8/5): Overall very good except lack of AC - Everything was as described or pictured. Air conditioning remote did not work,. I tried to email host thru booking.com but it no longer worked. i contacted her through her personal email and she acknowledged receipt but nothing was done to fix AC during our stay.
• Fereshteh (10/5): Exceptional -
• Annelies (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lacey (10/5): Exceptional - The condo was very clean, the beds were really comfortable, and the condo was in a great location. The underground parking was a great bonus! Can't wait to go back!
• Jwyman (8/5): Really nice place for a short and busy stay! - The location was great. The underground parking was practical. The codes on the doors made for easy and secure access. The picture frame that wasn't properly attached above the bed and that fell on my head while I was sleeping. Luckily, it was very light and I didn,t get hurt.
• Yannick (10/5): Veey good - Everything was great. Very clean. Great location. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you need except a cutting knive/big kitchen knives
• Merab (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rosanna (9/5): Very comfortable and enjoyable - Very comfortable Quiet Felt like home Nothing
• Emma (10/5): We enjoyed our stay! You have a lovely home! Thank you for having us. We will be back! - Beautiful condo very clean
• Frances (9/5): Will recommend except for shower access. - Location, comfort Had to have sponge baths. Could not safely get into shower over the high tub.
• Lynne1153 (10/5): Fantastic apartment! - Excellent apartment. Well stocked, modern and clean. Nothing!
• Praveen (9/5): Superb -
• Tahlia (7/5): Good -
• Ian (9/5): Great place to stay - Felt clean and fresh when we arrived, rooms all a good size for a short stay. Very happy to have washing machine and tumble dryer, would have been nice for a little washing powder as we had to find a shop and buy a large amount - hopefully it's still there for the next person! Good kitchen, dining space and nice little balcony. About 25-30 minute walk to the town but there is also a good bus service close by Can't really think of anything :) As an added service it would have been great if someone could have sent us an email when the property had been cleaned so that we weren't forced to wait until 4pm to get in if it was ready earlier. For many people there is a long journey before arrival and not much to do when lugging a huge bag around.
• Sean (9/5): Superb -
• Joseph (9/5): Superb - Location, spacious, comfy, with private parking spot. The design of the bathroom hanging glass door which provides no place to hold nor any rail holding etc. Is not convenient or even dangerous for seniors.
• Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kim (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gitanjali (10/5): Exceptional - Detailed instruction on time in e-mail.
• Narbutis-tidridge (9/5): Superb - I think the location was great, food locations were less than a 10 minute walk away. Parking garage was easy to get into and convenient. Apartment was perfect for my family of 6. Definitely would come back!
• Samara (10/5): Thank you to Elise and Eric for a stylish, warm and inviting accomodation that we could call home for a week holiday in - We stayed for Christmas with my family of 5 to enjoy our first ever White Christmas. The property was just perfect! It had everything we needed and more. Coming home everyday after a full day exploring was a lovely. We also loved that our car could be parked underneath in a secure car park and not have to be dug out of the snow everyday. A win win in our books. We LOVED it. Nothing…….it was awesome.
• Matthias (8/5): nice apartment with excellent equipment- not the best location - spacious modern fully equipped- nice terrace even spices, coffee, etc noisy street, not the best neighbourhood, 2 kilometres to downtown
• Gaurav (10/5): Exceptional -
• Marie-ange (8/5): Great location and 10 min by car to Old Quebec - Great location! 10 minutes by car to Old Quebec. Nothing
