Brenda's place is exactly as advertised and is in a great part of the city full between Leslieville and the Beach with wonderful cafes, restaurants and great walking paths along the lake. The streetcar is right at the door so you will hear it from the apartment but I got used to this after a day or so. Her apartment is very well furnished and functional and parking was included. I was there for a month and was very happy with the well stocked kitchen and amazing shower. Whether you are just visiting for a few days or need temporary accommodations as I did, Brenda's apartment is ideal. I will be returning to Toronto often and will definitely try to stay here again!
