Beza and Vlad were very nice and very welcoming. Both my arrival and departure went smoothly. As I was working the majority of the time I was in Toronto I didn't spend very much time hanging out at the apt or in the stockyards unfortunately. While it isn't the most central location, it was very easy for me to get downtown, and it was nice to come home to a quieter neighbourhood at the end of a long day. Over the course of my 2 month stay there were a couple of bumps in the road (a broken towel rack for instance). Any time a problem arose Beza and Vlad were very quick to solve it to the best of their abilities in addition to apologizing profusely, even though nothing that happened was their fault :)
These are great people with a tidy basement apartment that could be your home away from home!
