Max's place was exactly what we needed for a ~10 day stay in Toronto. The house is gorgeous, clean and SUPER well equipped. The kitchen was well-stocked with all the utensils and cookware that we needed for everyday cooking, and Max and family even left a well stocked fridge for us! It was super convenient to have butter, salt, oil and other pantry basics without having to go to a grocery store right after we checked in, and we really appreciated that + haven't experienced such thoughtful and generous service in other airbnb's.
The dining room was my favourite spot in the house- it has large windows and overlooks the gorgeous private backyard. The backyard would be perfect to enjoy in the summer or fall. The living room has a large LCD TV and an extremely comfortable couch, so we were able to have cosy movie nights when the weather was rainy. Overall the house is really spacious and is perfect if you need privacy to work from home or if you have kids (there is a kids bedroom besides the master bedroom). The basement was also really large and had a private workspace/area to do yoga or other exercise. The laundry room was also convenient with an attached washer and dryer.
The location was also convenient with a bakery and a couple of restaurants within 100-200 meters, for easy access to food. We LOVED the italian grocery store around the corner- they have fabulous, fresh ingredients and pretty awesome pizza. Though a bit far out from downtown or busier areas by walk (the area is quite residential), there's a subway station very close by so access to shopping areas/downtown is easy. I also met the house manager who was really friendly - he lives nearby and said he was available for any assistance during our stay.
Max was super communicative and extremely helpful when we asked for recommendations in the area. I would 100% recommend his spot to any of my own friends and family looking for a place to stay in Toronto.
