Our host, Sandy, was wonderful! She responded to our request and our follow up emails quickly, and she was very helpful in orienting us to Toronto and her side of the city. Both she and her sweet dog, Roxie, greeted us upon arrival and often were around for a midday chat or to say goodnight. The house was lovely: modern, comfortable, and clean. (Great shower and privacy!) In fact, even though it's located across from a school, the entire four days were very peaceful and quiet. We caught the street car very easily from both ends of the street as well as enjoyed local shopping and eats around her home.
