This apartment was amazing! I was in Toronto for work and stayed at John and Lise's place for six weeks. My experience was great from start to finish.
The apartment itself is beautiful, with a brand new kitchen and bathroom and a gorgeous view of downtown Toronto from the balcony. It's a studio but feels spacious enough when the Murphy bed is up. Kensington Market is a vibrant neighborhood, and the apartment is right in the middle of things. I walked 30 seconds to a cool coffee shop, three minutes to my yoga place, 6-7 minute to the university, and there were tons of great restaurants all over the neighborhood. Lise was an exceptional host. For instance, I wrote her at 8:30 one morning about an issue with the coffee maker. Within 20 minutes, she had a replacement coffee maker put outside my door. She let me check in early on my first day, and went above and beyond to help me get a package delivered during my stay.
You should stay here!
