My family and I just spent a memorable 10 days at Esther and Sebastian’s apartment. We are a family of four who were in Toronto to visit our families and friends over the Christmas holiday. The spacious 3 bedroom apartment was perfect for our needs. It was recently renovated, tastefully decorated, and very well equipped (especially the kitchen!). All beds and furnishings were very comfortable.
Location-wise, the apartment offers very convenient access to the city subway, with Keele station literally a 2 minute walk. From there, the subway will bring you downtown in 15 minutes. Convenience stores, cafes, and grocery stores are a 5 minute walk from the apartment. A little farther away are the shops of Bloor & Runnymede and the up-and-coming Junction district, both very worthwhile exploring on foot. For runners and walkers, the massive High Park area (blessed with walking paths and duck ponds) is a 5 minute walk away and perfect for your morning exercise.
Lastly, we found Esther and Sebastian to be extremely responsive hosts, with whom we were able to communicate easily.
I would give this property my highest possible recommendation to any couple, family, or small group of friends looking for a pied-à-terre to use as a base for exploring the city of Toronto. My family and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
