Amanda's home is a comfortable, older apartment with a practical kitchenette. It has a great location very close to Bloor street and public transport, yet is surprisingly quiet and has a leafy green view northward over the Annex residential area. As we were there in summer, I greatly enjoyed breakfast on the balcony with its wide views. Amanda was a considerate hostess, always available per phone or email and she responded quickly to our initial accommodation request. She allowed us a late check-in, greeted us at the apartment and thoughtfully provided us with breakfast supplies for our first morning.
