I stayed at Ryan’s place for three months over the summer and greatly enjoyed my stay. From the beginning, I felt welcomed when Ryan left out bottles of sparkling water, which were gratefully consumed. The apartment is full of natural light, giving it a cheery atmosphere. The patio provides a welcome respite after a busy day of work or an oasis on a lazy weekend afternoon. The apartment is well-insulated from outside noises. I never heard the neighbors during my time there, and I am a sensitive sleeper.
The bedroom is well appointed, with a plush bed and comfy couch to lounge on. There is a TV in the room with an Apple TV device connected. The AC unit in the bedroom was critical for enduring Toronto’s occasionally sweltering heat. The kitchen is fully stocked with some common spices, cooking utensils, cutlery, and pots & pans to help take care of all your cooking needs.
The location is excellent. The Leslieville neighborhood is charming and full of character. A smorgasbord of restaurants and cafes are just a few minutes walk away on Queen Street. If you fancy a day in the summer sun, the Beaches are a 30 min walk away (shorter if you rent a bicycle from the bike share program). In the opposite direction, the heart of downtown can be easily reached from the nearby TTC stop.
Ryan is an attentive host who responded quickly to any concerns I had. I highly recommend Ryan’s place for a short or long stay.
