Luisa is an amazing host. I stayed in the Tranquility room, and enjoyed every minute of it. She also rents out another room, which is called the Enchanted room and is also listed with Airbnb.
If you stay at this house, you are in for a friendly stay. This is not the place you want to stay if you don’t want any interactions or company. But you of course, have the privacy of the lock on your bedroom door.
Luisa knows much about the area, and is great for giving tips and advice on where to go and what’s going on. She is of a liberal, creative and open mindset, so it was very nice to stay with someone that shares my values/ethics.
The neighborhood is authentic and vibrant. It feels very safe and residential, but at the same time, right in the thick of things on busy Bloor street. Both the Christie and Ossington subway stations are about a three minute walk. There is a corner store super close, and a huge supermarket within I’d say about 7-10 minutes walk on Christie street.
You could spend your whole time here and have endless options for food and nightlife in the area, or you could relax in the comfort of your tranquility room. The room has every detail you could think of -from international outlet plug converter to scissors to WiFi.
But more than the rest, the thing that makes this property unique is the host. It’s the same feeling as coming home to family.
