Zein's place consists of the basement of his apartment and is spacious and comfortable with more than enough room for the 3 of us. Although the room itself is clean and well equipped, the apartment building itself could do with a lick of paint.
Zein was also very kind of us check in very early (around 8am) and also met us at the subway station so that we didn't get lost. He also offered us use of his car, though we didn't need it.
Although the place is quite far away from the centre of Toronto, it's only about 20-30 minutes by train so perfectly manageable.
