I came to Toronto for school and Karen's place was the perfect place for my long stay. It had everything you needed in terms of cleaning supplies, a large kitchen with a dishwasher, a washer/dryer, and a renovated bathroom. However, when my stay got cut short (classes turned to online), Karen was very accommodating and provided me with a full refund for the remainder of my trip. That shows what kind of character Karen has as a host and it's also a reflection of the value of this bnb. Other than the bnb, the location was incredible. There was always something new to visit or try since it's located right beside the Junction. The neighbourhood is safe and was within walking distance to beautiful High Park and the Keele St. Train (which takes you to campus within 15 to 20 mins). Overall, if you're in need of a high-quality bnb with accommodating hosts, Karen's place is the way to go!
