Gem & John make everything about staying at a home-away-from-home easy, and do so with a friendly touch. No need to track down a key lock box somewhere or dash secretively through a condo lobby, and a personalized welcome sign greets you upon entry?! Here, you feel a part of the neighbourhood, with tasteful modern-rustic decor in a Portuguese theme, and a charming chalkboard that highlights critical amenities (e.g. coffee, bakery), contacts, and events. This is a perfect place for those who appreciate the little things (e.g. nice bedding and towels, not-from-walmart kitchen supplies). Visitors over 6' tall will need to hunch down in parts of the unit, but how much time do you plan to spend standing around inside, when there is so much to do on Queen West and beyond? Gem & John are fantabulous hosts, going above and beyond to ensure that you can make the most of your visit.
