Melissa's space is exactly as you see in the photos. It is bright and clean with updated furnishings as well as an updated remodeled 3 piece bathroom with a heated stone floor! Having the option to do my laundry was wonderful, even though I did not use the machines. I appreciated having a separate entrance and her space is extremely private, but you feel like you are staying in your friends home. The home is within walking distance of restaurants and diverse types of shopping, as well as a streetcar that you can catch to ride into downtown Toronto. Communicating with Melissa was simple and easy.
