Spacious shared home in a great location near restaurants, cafes and bars. It’s right next to Ossington and College and Little Italy. Only 2 minutes from the streetcar to go downtown, 5 minutes from the supermarket and 15 minutes to Dufferin Mall.
Mina allowed me to check in much earlier as I was coming from another place and the room was empty.
It looked quite different to the pictures but it was a good size, with a comfortable bed and small work space. It was the only room downstairs, next to the shared bathroom and access was through the kitchen (and a side door which is handy).
You’ll be sharing with up to five people but everyone was respectful, noise was minimal and the place stayed pretty clean. There are rules posted around the house which helped to keep things running smoothly.
A few things to note:
- The room didn’t have central heating so would get pretty cold. Definitely utilise the portable heaters provided.
- The Internet was spotty as it’s far from the router but the property managers were quick to try to fix issues and it did improve.
- Be aware that there’s construction going on nearby, which is hard to avoid in the city but it can be loud in the mornings.
