We where there for seven nights as the cottage was pet friendly (didn't want to be in a hotel room for that long), in a quiet neighbourhood and near a park and Lake Ontario.
The cottage is spacious enough for 2 couples and lovely decorated but the living room furniture is so old, hard and uncomfortable I had to sit in bed with some pillows to work on my iPad... fortunately the mattress/bed is new and kind of comfortable (a little hard but everybody has their own needs).
As it’s an old house, there are some traps on the floor for ventilation/AC connecting directly with the basement.... which btw is really hard adjusting the temperature as the thermostat is from another century ! The guests in basement were cold and it was hot on the upper floor.
If the “air” goes trough these traps you can certainly understand that noise goes easily as well !!!! We could hear everything the guests down stairs were doing .... without giving any details. But the worse is the livingroom TV from downstairs just under the master bedroom of the upper floor !!!
Bottom of line, even though Vince is very kind and answers quickly to messages, our stay was disappointing because we could not enjoy the house as we had planned.
