I really loved it, and you are super kind to the guests. Keep up the great work.

Thethe S

The accommodation was very clean, and our host was welcoming and ready to help us if we needed anything, but everything was provided and well-organized, so we were very comfortable. The accommodation is located in the countryside on a quiet road, so the traffic is minimal, which is quite convenient and pleasant.

Denis D.

Super service! We lacked for nothing!

Melissa C.

We loved our stay at the loft.

Anyk C.

Impeccable service! I had some issues with the wifi, and the host took care of it immediately! When I arrived, there was supposed to be an air conditioner, but the neighbor broke it! I contacted the host, and she immediately went to buy a new air conditioner and had it installed! I loved my experience!

Émilie B.

Thank you for the warm welcome. Very quiet place.

Louise C.

Very good welcome, warm and good customer service.

Kahina A.

Very friendly host family and ready to respond to any request. The accommodation is spacious, modern, and well-heated.

Richard N.

Our hosts were very welcoming and rushed to meet our needs to ensure that our large family was well settled in. The house was clean upon our arrival, and the owners quickly resolved the small issues we encountered during our 7-month stay. We had a great bond with the hosts and their family. Despite the stress from the incident we experienced, we had a wonderful experience in this house!

Céline T.

I recommend this accommodation to anyone. This place met my standards. Thank you very much.

Marie-Thérèse T.

Long stay of nearly 6 months. The host is attentive and responds very quickly to tenants' requests. The accommodation is impeccable, clean, and well-maintained. The neighborhood is very busy, with cars driving at high speeds. However, the residence is located near several services. I whole-heartedly recommend this accommodation. Thank you for everything.

Frequently asked questions

Not at all! We don’t require any out-of-pocket deposits or fees.


Our hosts are people who offer furnished and equipped accommodation. When you submit a request, those who match your criteria will be solicited for a quote. We also verify the accommodation and the identity of our hosts before sending offers for your approval, as the insured’s safety is always our number one priority.


As soon as your request is received, work starts. In less than an hour, an agent from our team will reach out to you to propose the best value options.


Sinistar is your single payment entity for all your relocation files. Once the rental contract is signed, we will send you the billing invoice based on the price and duration of the stay. You can choose to pay either all at once or on a monthly basis. We also account for rent and deductible if applicable.


Absolutely, and as many times as necessary! We will send you an email asking if an extension is needed some time before the end of the scheduled rental period. You can simply indicate the new departure date, and we will confirm the housing availability with the host. If the place is available for the requested dates, the insured can continue the stay and we will update the billing invoice. If not, we will suggest another that matches your criteria. Alternatively, you can always contact your Sinistar agent directly and let them know anytime.
