We stayed in Melissa and Ted's home for three weeks while we were waiting for our home reno's to wrap up. Despite the fact that we were paying rent to them, we felt incredibly grateful that they were offering their home in this way; a great relief. Ted and Melissa were terrific hosts who took great care to respect our privacy. We only occasionally shared space with them, but that was great also as we got to know one another - in the end we left feeling as though we had made some new friends. The house itself was great, perfect location for all that the Roncy area has to offer, and plenty of room for the four of us. Laundry, kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms - great neighbourhood for walking to everything - so much more than you will ever get from one of Toronto's awful downtown hotels. The only other options available to us at the time were furnished condos which seemed to be primarily located in the downtown - not terribly ideal given our family circumstances.
