My stay with my friend at Shawn and Nicole's airbnb was utterly wonderful. If I had to be honest, it was smaller than I expected but very cozy. We fell in love at first sight. The hosts were wonderful by leaving us a small welcoming gift and always there to check up on us. We've had bad experiences with other airbnbs for the very lack of amenities. This one was the best one we've ever been in. Everything you need is there and nicely decorated. They were sweet and generous.
The movements of the train, the dog or any other sounds outside made never bothered us. But it is a quiet neighbourhood and very close to the subway. It can be cold because the airbnb is in the basement, but the comforters are very warm.
If you're travelling from outside of Toronto, I highly recommend to stay over at Shawn and Nicole's :)
