I stayed here for 5 weeks to complete a practicum at Toronto General Hospital. Excellent location, but the room faces a busy street. Occasionally there are some loud folks downstairs. Also, every monday at 12am the garbage truck comes by and picks up garbage on Baldwin Street. Its very disruptive and loud, especially with the windows opened. I usually would have poor sleep on those nights.
The room also gets very heated up during the day time when it's sunny even when it's 11-13 degrees celsius outside. The direction of the room gets a lot of sunlight during the day but no wind. There is a fan in the room, but it still gets really stuffy. I can't imagine how hot it would be during the summer time.
Frida is a very pleasant host and is accommodating. However, it is difficult to share a single bathroom with a family of 4. There are times where you would have to wait your turn to use the bathroom. This can be inconvenient if you're on a schedule to work in the morning.
The apartment does have a kitchen, but it is very small and cluttered at times. I did intend to cook during my stay to save up money, but I found this difficult. Instead, I stuck to the mini fridge and microwave in the bedroom and ate out most days.
There are 3 elevators to get to the apartment but the first one has some mechanical issues. The first elevator on the left does not close for at least 5 minutes and occasionally makes noises to alert that it's having issues. I sense that this is a chronic issue that management may not intend to fix as many of the occupants of the building are familiar with nudging the sides of the elevator door with their foot to get the door to close... and yes, the trick does work!
Overall, I think it's a good location to stay if its for a short trip, but for a longer stay I would reconsider.
