Russell’s place is an absolute bargain. It is large, clean and modern. We had asked about certain kitchen items (salad spinner, ice trays, …) and Russell bought them special for us and delivered them. You could not ask for a better location, within walking distance from many excellent restaurants, supermarkets, a liquor store, and a beautiful neighborhood for strolls. It is also particularly well situated for public transport, just steps from two streetcar lines. Central air worked great and was most welcome as it was an unusually warm August in Toronto. WiFi was a bit weak, often not reaching the back bedroom, but was generally fine in the commons areas and free Netflix was a plus. The back yard was a bit of a disappointment as it is not a private space, but is shared with a basement tenant. On the whole, we were very happy to have Russell’s place as our home base for a month.
