Really good location, 3mins from Sherbourne and maybe 10 from Bloor Yonge (subway stations). Definitely central and easy to commute. There is a sushi place right downstairs and a ton of food chains around. The mall is connected to the block of flats so easy access to amenities. Just to note; the laundromat is in the basement, level B1, you can’t pay with card or cash so ask the host for the laundry card.
Being so central, the street is expectedly noisy at night, especially if you have the window open. Although this wasn’t an issue for us personally. The bed is very comfortable, and the fan circulates some air in the hot weather.
The room and bathroom are generally clean, the room now has much more in it than pictured; including a coffee table, a dresser, fan and book case. There is also an in-built wardrobe on the right (not visible in images). There is an iron but no board (no problem for us though, just ironed on the bed with one of the towels as protection).
Unfortunately I think it’d be worth mentioning that there are roaches.. in the kitchen and bathroom. Mainly at night, but still there nonetheless. We didn’t spend a lot of time in the flat during the day but had to remove a few from existence. They were mainly small ones so if the host gets the place treated soon and puts new traps the problem could be solved.
When we arrived we had no key fob to enter the main entrance (there is no bell or buzzer), hence had to wait for another resident to let us in. When we got to the room though we were lucky the cleaner was there so he let us in and the keys/fob were on the dresser in the bedroom. This wouldn’t have really been a problem but thought it was good to mention as when we arrived we had no wifi or data or sim hence wouldn’t have been able to communicate.
Adler is kind and generally prompt in responding despite being abroad also. His responses are always detailed and personable.
The cactus on the dresser is NOT fake by the way, don’t grab it :,D
