Was going to use the house as a temporary stopover to look around Toronto before we had to rent permanent housing for our work. Would never choose this property for vacation.
Really dirty on arrival. House really needs renovation. Everything is old and worn. Things are falling apart, literally. In connection with my work, I have been in very dysfunctional houses that look better than this. The ad said we rent the whole house, but a student lived in the basement. Washing machine and dryer to share.
You must have a car in the area. Over 1 km to trains, buses with poor connection to the centre. Supermarket over 1.2 km away.
Nice little backyard though. Haven't used it because of the winter period.
The host is extremely sweet and friendly but speaks little English. It causes some challenges with communication, answers almost immediately. The house has its more obvious limitations due to its age and lack of renovation and lack of kitchen equipment. Cleaning must definitely be tightened up!
