Adrians's flat was exactly as it looked in the photographs.
Adrian's mum, Hermina gave us a very warm welcome on our arrival and had stocked the kitchen with soft drinks and home made cookies as well as all the other basics. She also gave us a fond farewell when collecting the keys. She really seems to enjoy meeting the guests.
Transport downtown takes about 30 minutes on the tram (right outside the door) or the undergournd which is a 10 minute walk (Bloor Street). We took a cab to the flat from the airport ($50 incl. tip) and the UP Express back to the airport which is up on Bloor not far from the Underground. All the shops you could need (incl. pharmacy) are in walking distance. Did not get a chance to try any of the restaurants in Roncevales so can't comment specifically. Looked ok from the tram and there is nothing on Bloor within walking distance.
Adrian was very easy to communicate with both before and during our trip. Could not give Adrian, his mum and his flat any less than 5 stars!
