We stayed at Sharon’s for our daughter’s graduation from U of T. We chose it because it had parking which we needed for a pick up truck to haul some of our daughter’s stuff back to the USA. Sharon was superb with communication. We were in communication well in advance of our stay because I was trying to secure a Uhaul trailer and she helped try to coordinate one, then helped us get parked when we had to bring one with us from the states.
The house is beautiful, clean, sufficient stuff to prepare meals, beds are super comfy, shower head is wonderful. The street location is in a pretty section. There are some seedy areas not far but that’s true of every city. I walked to and from multiple places (during the day) with family and by myself and had no concerns. Uber was also super convenient.
We’ve stayed at a lot of Airbnb’s and my son commented this is the first time we’ve met the host and felt like we were actually “hosted” by someone. Sharon checked in several times just to see if we needed anything. It felt like a hybrid of Airbnb with a personalized home stay.
Since our daughter is staying in Toronto post-graduation, we would choose Sharon’s place again as our Toronto home away from home. This was the first time we’d been back since the pandemic and it was a great choice for us.
