Lisa's place was definitely in the heart of downtown Toronto. Close to everything, and very convenient in that regard. So that was awesome.
Upon arrival, check-in was actually pretty smooth. There was only one concierge working when I arrived, while other days there were two. So I did have to wait a bit to check in. But its the same in a hotel, so there is nothing you can do except wait your turn.
When I arrived in what would be place for eight days- I was happy. It was just like the pictures. The view was INCREDIBLE! and awesome to have all week. The Kitchen, kitchen amenities and having a Nespresso machine were also amazing. As well , the bed was very comfortable and clean.
As for the bathroom, although new-er. I didn't love it, and had some concerns. But I addressed all these concerns to Lisa privately. There were a few other things throughout my stay that could be improved upon. I would say however, that the shower is 'not' designed for most sizes of people. I consider myself to be slender and it was still very very tight in there. Which was difficult. Most of my concerns came with the bathroom, but again, has nothing to do with the host. She was attentive and great, and really cared about improving and making her place better for the future. She was a great host and so attentive. And ultimately, I had a great stay. You can't beat the view and location. The amenities within building also looked so lovely- I wish I could of used them and it not be covid times. That was unfortunate. Since residents can and airbnb guest couldn't- doesn't seem entirely fair since it's an airbnb friendly building. Not Lisa's fault, though. I also would of like a little wiggle room in check out time. 10:00. Or at least had the option- again- not the host fault though. Lastly, having a parking spot downtown Toronto, right in the building is definitely great though, and I would stay again.
