We loved our little apartment and it suited our needs very well. We could walk to the grocery store and the subway within 15 to 20 minutes. We spent quite a bit of time in Hachilego where the restaurants and pubs were on Ontario Street. It was 15 minute walk. If you need anything the convenience store right under the apartment is great. There is street construction but it did not bother us. It will be wonderful when it is done and will probably revitalize the area. For now we just enjoyed the treed streets in the neighborhood. Jiyani is a great host and very quick at getting back to us if we had any questions.
