Hamed and his family were extremely amazing hosts. My family and I were living there over six months, and for sure, this was the best place to stay in Toronto.
Since the booking, Hamed was quite supportive. He answered all my questions and provided me with useful information about the place and all the matters.
The apartment location is absolutely convenient. Speaking of public transportation the bus stop is one block away. Regarding stores, approximately ten minutes walking distance (or 3 minutes by bus), there is a food basic supermarket, a Tim Hortons, a dry clean business, a subway and a hamburger restaurant.
Although the apartment is in the basement, it was not hot during the summer or cold during the winter. Moreover, Hamed paid attention all the time about the temperature, asking us how we felt it. Besides, there is sufficient illumination by sun lights or bulbs.
For short and long stays, I highly recommend this choice because it has enough room for storing luggage and other stuff. The main room is quite spacious and the closet as well. The internet access speed was good enough for streaming and TV cable channels were great too.
I can say that Hamed and his family did kind-hearted things that we really appreciate and those actions made us feel like home.
