This apartment is a mixed bag and it comes down to what you are really looking for in an AirBnB.
Let's start with the positives:
1). Location: It is a 10 min walk to the Rogers Centre and a 15 min walk to ScotiaBank Arena. There is a grocery store about 10 mins away from the apartment, as well as about a 10 min walk from an LCBO wine/beer store.
2). Restaurants: There is a restaurant directly outside of the apartment tower building as well as numerous other restaurants within a two minute walk of the apartment building.
3). Pet Friendly: The apartment building is extremely pet friendly. Also, there is a dog park across the street which is adjacent to a much larger park which makes it nice and quick to have your pet go potty.
4). Parking: Parking is free and easily accessible with quick in and out if you need it.
And now the negatives:
1). Furniture: Has to be the most uncomfortable furniture I have ever sat or slept on. My back is absolutely killing me sleeping on this so-called mattress on the bed. I think sleeping on concrete would have been more comfortable. And the couch is even worse; you literally have to get up and move after sitting on this thing for more than five minutes.
2). Kitchen table: There is NO kitchen/dining room table. Zero. There is the smallest tiniest coffee table in the living room that is directly adjacent to the kitchen.
3). This place is tiny. Do not go here with kids in tow as it is not big enough for more than 2 people.
4). The kitchen is not fully stocked, at all. Do not plan on cooking your own meals here like most AirBnBs I've been to. Extremely limited pots/pans and zero counter space to cook/plan any meals. Also, there's no place to eat anything that you've cooked as there are no tables.
5). No Cable TV? Seriously? I'm not asking for free pay-per-view but at $300/night you could throw in some TV for watching sports at night or morning.
6). The elevator wait time is insane. Easily an extra ten minutes coming and going waiting for this stupid elevator.
7). The noise from outside is insane. You're right on top of a train track that goes by 24/7 and the restaurant/nightclub down below goes until 2AM.. Oh did you want some privacy and some darkness? Nah the blinds are all half-broken so enjoy that sunshine and lights at 2AM and 7AM!
The host is fine. Good communication and directions on getting in to the place. The place is spotless but that includes amenities and furniture. It was not a comfortable stay on the body. So if you're looking for a place to literally just crash for a few hours after being out on the town in downtown Toronto this is your place. If you're looking for a more comfortable place for you and your family to have a meal after seeing a ballgame to save a few bucks, and then an enjoyable night's sleep, this is not your place. I hate being negative but the only way AirBNB works is with honest reviews.
