What a wonderful space in Leslieville! We traveled with our almost 3 year old and it was perfect for us in a neighborhood setting, but so close to the public transportation. The amenities were great and we were so happy to have all the kid-friendly amenities as well that we weren’t expecting (step stools and a kid friendly towel). This apartment has everything you need, including a very well equipped kitchen and you can’t beat the flexibility of a parking space as well. There is a walkway from the front of the house through the side yard to the back of the house to get to the car.
Bissa and her husband were the most gracious of hosts and made us feel like we were visiting family. It was wonderful to have them just down the bottom of the stairs, if we needed anything. One logistical thing to note is that the main bedroom is upstairs, so we ended up sleeping in the second bedroom and using the pullout couch for our son’s bed, so that we could be on the same floor at night. It still worked out perfectly for us, but I wanted to be clear that the second bedroom is on the same floor as the living room, bathroom, and kitchen, but the main bedroom is at the top of the house.
