Testimonials

Dear Mariko and Bob
Thank you so much for your kindness. We just knew this was the place for us. You, your staff and your guests made us feel at home. Because of you, our 51st wedding anniversary was wonderful.

Dear Mariko and Bob
We had a wonderful time, mostly because of your great B & B and hospitality. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously getting great tips on all the fun things to see and do. We certainly liked the first part of the trip best, where we could just do what we wanted and have fun.
The conference was a good one, but did take too much of our time. It started early and ended late, and you guys were very accomodating, which we greatly appreciated.
We loved your city and will hopefully return to visit again. Most definitiely, we will organize to stay at your place again. All we need is time, which is in short supply.
Be well,
Russell and Greta June 2009

Dear Bob and Mariko,

Monika and I did not get a chance to say goodbye to you before we left and thank you for the wonderful time we had at your bed and breakfast. We loved the decor of the house and our room. Everything was so tastefully chosen and aesthetically appealing. We really enjoyed ourselves at Montreal and staying at your place definitely added to that. The breakfasts were a great way to start the mornings and the staff were so friendly and polite.

Thank you very much for making our visit so enjoyable. We look forward to visiting Montreal soon and would love to stay with you again.

Warm regards,
Avi.

Lizzy and I were so glad to have found you guys. You made our stay so pleasant and you made us feel at home in a foreign city. We appreciate everything and hope to see you again!

Best regards,
Whitney Bevill

Dear Bob & Mariko,

Thank you so much for being so kind. Staying with you was an absolute delight! We had a great time in your winter wonderland!

Bob, it's a shame we did not get to meet you! It is quite odd that we didn't cross paths. It just means we will have to come again! For what it's worth, you are a delight to speak to over the phone.

Mariko, thank you for being a warm and pleasant hostess. It's truly a talent to be so lively first thing in the morning. Your croissants really are the best in town. If it wasn't for all the clear directions & the map you gave us, we would have spent a lot more time wandering around!

Also thank you kindly for giving us a great rate--it means a lot to students on a budget! Your house is beautiful and we felt right at home! Please thank your friendly staff for us as well.

We've already begun recommending you! Sarah's is bringing your card to her sister, who plans to visit Montreal soon.

Happy Holidays & Thanks again!

To Bob, Mariko and Company:

Thank you for a wonderful stay. We have stayed at some B&Bs before, but this by far has been the best experience for us. Thank you again! We will see you soon!

Hi,
Thanks for the great experience in Montreal!
The location is perfect, the room was lovely and all your staffers were wonderfully friendly. On my next visit to Montreal, I’ll know where to stay. Thanks for everything.

Bob and Mariko,
I woke up early just because it was silent, calm, peaceful and warm....and we slept so good! :-))

I was even surprised to find such peacefulness, here in Montreal...We felt at home.
In this silence, I was looking at the room where we slept, with the beautiful and simple decoration. The wooden doors and trims bring a warm feeling to the place. All those details made me think of all the care and time spent to make sure all people who come here are actually feeling to be taken care of. Today, this is sometimes hard to find.
Thank you very much for your warm hospitality and for all the time and care you spent to make sure we can fell at home.

Arigato! Merci beaucoup! Thank you very much!

Dear Bob and Mariko,

Carly and I successfully dug-out our car and made it into the streets via the sidewalk that post snowstorm day of departure. We really enjoyed our stay in your beautiful brownstone and enjoyed meeting you both. Thank you for your warm hospitality and congratulations on your 25 years and end of mortgage! Hope to return in the future.

Take care and Happy New Year to you.
Best,

Dear Bob and Mariko, 
The Emma Willard Dance Company could not have asked for a more delightful lodging experience in Montreal last week than staying at your Bed & Breakfast. Thank you so much for your generosity, hospitality, flexibility and kindness.

After a long day of performing, there was nothing more comforting than the thought of returning to our cozy rooms and settling down for a cup of tea or one of Mariko’s delicious croissants.

Thank you for making our time there wonderful and memorable. We hope to be back again!

Hi Bob and Mariko,
We had a fantastic time in Montreal, partly because your place was so perfect for us and you were so hospitable! Thank you.

Our time was limited, and we could not see all the things we wanted to on this trip. We will defintely take you up on your offer for next time.

Best
