Maria always replies in a timely manner. Her apartment is in excellent shape, clean and tidy. The furniture there is her personal furniture, not the cheap, plastic ones seen in some full-time airbnb units. Her TV has all the popular streaming channels. Staying at her places gives us the feeling that we are staying at a friend's well-kept house, not some cold, empty unit.
There is a small mall and a supermarket in the immediate neighbourhood, and more shops along Yonge Street within 15 min. walking. We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and hope that her unit will available again next Christmas.
