Our stay at Arjun's place was just great. The apartment was clean, well fitted, nicely decored, and came with all utensils and cutleries needed for a long stay. We were a family of four and stayed there for a month. The double bath was convenient for us, we had to take showers after a long day out, given the Covid situation. The two rooms were spaced apart and the kids had their privacy. The beds were comfortable. As an architect, I particularly liked the open plan and the views of life going by on Bay Street.
One of the best things about the place is the location, we could walk down to all the eateries and grocery shops. The Farmboy and the Metro is only a 5-minute walk. In terms of mobility and travelling, walkability is a strong point, catching up a streetcar or an underground is very easy from this place.
The Queens park nearby provided an occasional relief for us to connect with nature. My kids enjoyed the sights and sounds of the park.
The lively Yonge Street is parallel to Bay street is very close, we frequented the Eaton Centre and other shops in the vicinity. Very convenient I must say, as we did not have to avail the mass transport for these kinds of activities in Covid times.
Due to Covid, the common amenities were mostly closed so we could not avail them, not that we had much time for it. During our return, we had to do the preflight Covid test and the Switch Health clinic was located not far from our place at Peter Street, a short trip by UBER. The Pharmacies nearby usually take more time to give out the results.
Although an apartment, we felt safe during the Covid times as all health protocols were in place at the premises. The parking spot that came in with the unit was useful, visiting friends could park their car here.
Finally, I must say a few words about the host Arjun, he was just a phone call away when we needed him. Not that we needed him much, as everything was in order. Very friendly and forthcoming. I will definitely stay at Arjun's place again.
