We stayed in the ground-floor 3 bedroom unit and it was fantastic. A few steps up off the street and you walk directly into your apartment. It's more private than you'd expect - I would have considered being on the ground floor a negative, but it really wasn't. The unit was very thoughtfully designed - I can't think of anything that was missing. Location is on the border of two neighborhoods - quiet, residential Saint-Jean-Baptiste, with Rue St. Jean just up the hill for restaurants and shops, and trendy St. Roch, with plenty of great boutiques and brewpubs, especially on Rue St. Joseph. The old, walled part of the city is a 15-20 minute walk away, but our family prefers accommodations away from the most touristy sections of town, so this was pretty ideal. Be prepared to climb some hills or stairs, though. The upside is that your walk back at the end of the day is downhill. There's currently a large surface parking lot across the street - that's also something I would have expected to be a negative, but turned out to be a positive. We stopped for dinner with family in NYC on our drive up to Quebec City, and parking for 4 days here cost about the same as 4 hours in NYC. I value trying out new places, but would stay here again with my family - probably the highest complement I could give.
