The basement apartment was spacious, more so than a hotel room would be for a family of 4. Hamid was very responsive and his brother, who actually met us, was very helpful too. The awesomeness of this location cannot be overstated. A walk to the right on Royal York lands you at No Frills. The bread and eggs provided for us, from No Frills, cut down on breakfast costs a lot. To the left on Royal York is Sanremo's which is amazing. A little further down is the Go train station which is an easy ride downtown and saves on parking. If all else fails, you can go for a nice neighborhood walk and find yourself at any number of restaurants.
