Tyler’s place is at a perfect location, very easy to get around with public transportation and walking distance to awesome bars and restaurants in downtown Toronto.

From Holt Renfrew to Nordstrom, you can enjoy shopping at Dior, Cartier, Dolce & Gabbana, Louis Vuitton and many more on Bloor’s luxe strip. Stop at Pizzaiolo for a wide super affordable selection of gourmet meat, veggie, and vegan pizzas. You can even design your own. All their pizzas are available Gluten-free which was my case or dine in one of the upscales restaurants around. West 7, Wish, Constantine, Sabai Sabai and Kinton Ramen are around the block for laid back foodie feasting. For glitz and glamour, try Yorkville’s wonders, five minutes walking, where I loved Chabrol’s refined french cuisine in a superb heigh ceiling decor, Rob Gentile’s branzino at Buca is unrivalled, Café Boulud is Paris in town, and Planta remains a must fine-vegetarian dinning to experience. Now if you still want to cook it on your own and you will, you can indulge in gourmet grocery stores around including Pusateri’s, Whole Foods, McEwan and Longos.

This is how Tyler’s neighbourhood connects you to the taste and texture of a multicultural vibrant Toronto. Inside out. Outside in.

Now onto the plat de résistance: His room. The space is great, very clean, Netflixed and has everything you need, chiefly the luxury of the privacy of your own bathroom, a huge differentiator. Sheets are clean, fresh, and pillows and king sized bed are comfortable. His apartment, including shared areas, is spacious, sunny and equipped with everything you need from Nespresso’s to Laundry pods. Kitchen is compact and contains every necessity for the best foodie in you. The terrace is also a treat.

I stayed for a month, a long stay and Tyler was also very helpful since the beginning, available at all times whenever I had any questions. Moreover he was flexible, thoughtful, and a wonderful gracious host helping me ease this rough patch of my life, by a quiet yet loud humorous presence. He was very accommodating and very quick to respond or fix any little thing efficiently. We had a little internet glitch and he fixed it in 20 mins! between calls to the service provider and resetting the router. Honestly even in some hotels I stayed in, I did not witness such swiftness. He is also flexible with check-in and check-out time, which was extremely helpful and will be to you coming to visit.

Surprisingly, he introduced me to his friends, only to find out that most of them where his guests from airbnb because he embodies the experience of you being his guest. We did brunches and dinners. Always laid back. friendly and entertaining.

He reads people and situations well and act politely accordingly. I appreciated it because he knows how to be friendly not into familiarity with a soft aplomb. These are important traits in your host. I am sharing them so you experience airbnb from both sides of its coin: the place and its pastor, let's call it that way. He truly masters the canons of hospitality and embraces the creeds of humanity.

He went way beyond and effortlessly to make my long-stay comfortable and memorable. He will do the same for each and everyone of you.

Tyler’s passion for the plants is mirrored is his care after you: méticuleux et chaleureux, positivo e propositivo di trasparenza e sincerità, con lo afable que es personal, de uma pessoa cheia de benevolência, de attenção e de amabilidad.

Thank you, I am grateful to call him my friend in Toronto.

Super recommend it, ça va sans dire !
