Matt is hands-down the best Airbnb host I've ever met. I made a very last-minute booking and he answered my booking request within minutes. He was flexible with my check-in time, and he always answered questions promptly when I had them.
Matt is open, friendly and fascinating to talk to, offering just the right balance of private space and company. As a visiting musician, I appreciated having the piano to run some tunes on.
The house itself is beautiful and tastefully appointed, which feels luxurious in an Airbnb experience! I was delighted to feel welcome in the house, not simply confined to my room (lovely as it is!) Since we had access to the kitchen, my boyfriend and I cooked a delicious meal and then enjoyed a glass of wine on the sunny porch. The cafe across the street makes delicious cappuccinos, and there are lots of restaurant options for lunch and dinner.
Lots of little details (including a dedicated basket for guest toiletries in the bathroom!) make Matt's place a delightful home away from home. Although not central to downtown Toronto, the Junction is a great neighbourhood to explore, and getting downtown doesn't take long.
Highly recommended. Thanks, Matt, for making our stay so enjoyable!
