The house was very well kept. We had all of the items we needed (linens, towels, dishes, etc.). It was about 2 miles from downtown which was a nice walk. We never took the streetcar but it was close by. There are a lot of restaurants near by.
There is a TV in the finished basement but it wasn't really hooked up to anything. Note that it doesn't have HDMI so you can't connect a Chromecast to it. I think it had a PC port for a computer. This wasn't a problem for us since we were site seeing most of the time and we played cards in the evening. The house has WIFI so we could watch Netflix on our iPads.
There is a subway line very close by and you can hear the trains during the day, but they never bothered us at night. They don't run all night. We had a white noise app on our phone that we used to mask the sound and it didn't bother us.
Our host was available by phone when we had questions and really took care of us.
The private parking spot was really nice. Toronto street parking can be a pain and requires a permit in many places.
