Neil is a helpful and friendly host and was there to greet me on arrival. He lives in the house and is usually available to give advice about Toronto and vicinity. His house is close to public transportation so it's easy to get around the city from his house. There are even city bikes available for rent at a nearby location and plenty of good restaurants within 1 kilometre of Neil's house. I found the place a little cluttered but it was clean and everything worked. There's a very good shower in the bathroom which is shared with Neil and other guests. During warm weather, there's a charming balcony at the back of the house. The WiFi worked flawlessly during my stay and it was nice to have a large, satellite TV in my room. In the room where I stayed, there was a queen-size bed which was quite comfortable. There was also a large ceiling fan which was quite effective for circulating air during hot weather. I would recommend Neil's place without hesitation.
