Well, I managed to luck out and find the BEST place to stay in Toronto! First, Luis is a great host. Met me at the apartment and showed me the garage parking space (YES!!) and apartment. Second, the location. This Ft York location is kind of an oasis between the way-overbuilt Liberty Village and Spadina areas. It was nice and quiet...well, ok, except for the Raptors championship celebrate, Honda Indy and the Caribbean Carnival...but you also have the street cars and buses running right outside to take you easily downtown. There is a sweet little tree-enclosed meadow park just across the street that was perfect for my pup. Third, THE VIEW. Holy cow, all I wanted to do was lounge on the sofa and look out at the lake, Prince's Gate, the park. The balcony was great too. A great 8 week stay in the best place!
