I was so glad I selected the Annex Hideaway House for my visit. Hidden from the street at the end of a long driveway, it is in a green oasis surrounded by large, mature trees with a small yard, therefore peaceful, quiet and very private. It is in an older central neighbourhood with a strong community feel. The house is close to the University of Toronto, excellent coffee shops (Ezras's Pound is a must) and restaurants (suggest Nord Bistro) on Bloor St. and Dupont St. Jean Sibelius Park is a 3 minute walk around the corner with a great children's playground (structures and many toys for public use) Stops for both subway lines are close by. The house is stylishly (i.e. tasteful, minimalist) designed and furnished with great detail to comfort and convenience. Everything you need is provided (hairdryer, laundry, iron, cooking equipment, some staples, etc.), with thoughtful extras such as fresh flowers and a welcome bottle of wine (or beer). I particularly loved having morning coffee on the upstairs porch surrounded by huge trees. Larry and Susan are charming and extremely accommodating hosts, always available for information or assistance while being respectful of guest privacy. A parking spot was very useful. This house and hosts are highly recommended and I look forward to returning in a few weeks.
