The condo unit is rudimentary in terms of decoration and general tidiness, but if you're simply looking for a place to crash at a relatively low price in a hip area of Toronto, Christian's place is a good alternative. The main issues for us were the dust on the bedroom floor and in the air through the heater unit, as well as faucet and shower curtain cleanliness. Even though we enjoyed the area (many third wave coffees, bars, restos, hip shops, convenient streetcar on Queen) as well as the fact that Christian was responsive, our general opinion is that with a little love, the apartment could become a much more attractive option.
