Jude was really helpful during my journey in Toronto, her place is really nice if you are looking for something confortable and close to beaches. Downtown in 30min aways if you rent an eBike and I clearly recommend it (at least during summer), going downtown via the lake is a really great way to start the day.
Be sure to check at both Neruda and Bodega Henriette restaurants when you are here. Walkable distance from Jude's place and really good food and drinks.
