Wendell and Jesse are very welcoming and gave some great suggestions on local restaurants. We didn't realize the basement apartment had no air conditioning though. (Not sure if I just missed it in the listing or if it didn't say.) Also, we are tall people and for us the ceiling was very low. My husband is 6'4" and his head touched the ceiling. Overall, it was okay, but if we come back to Toronto, we'll look for someplace with a/c.
