Dmitry and Gelica were wonderful hosts who accommodated my early arrival (and prepared the room early, even though I had only asked to drop my bags!) by welcoming me in person with a warm chat. As I was spending NYE in Toronto, they offered ample suggestions on where to spend New Years Eve locally. The area has plenty of bars and restaurants and is a short walk from Queen Street West, with even more variety. The room is clean, spacious and well-heated with ample storage space for clothes and suitcases. They do note that the home has two flights of stairs to get up to the room, so this may be difficult for those with mobility issues.
All in all, I highly recommend a stay with Dmitry and Gelica.
