We had a lovely time in Karen and Ali's basement apartment. It was perfect for our tour of Toronto, was 3 blocks from the Subway to downtown, and the neighborhood had lots of cute little coffee shops. Karen was so friendly and greeted us but was away for the weekend so Ali her husband told us helpful tips about the city, suggested a visit to Kensington market (which was awesome!) and he even backed our car into the parking space for us! Absolutely wonderful hosts. The apartment is obviously a bit dark being in the basement but the small bathroom and kitchen were perfect for our needs and served as a great space for us to crash at night. Would highly recommend this location!
