Candace was an amazing host! She was very helpful in providing directions in getting towards her place, it actually is very simple to find . The community really cool, it's older but a very up and coming neighborhood with a lot of young families. Everything you need is accessible right to you (banks, food, pubs, pharmacy, coffee shops, corner stores). When I arrived Candace left a detailed written description of where my room was, as well as the names of the other guests staying as well as her phone number. Meeting Candace she is very welcoming and nice (and her little dog is super cute!). She also provides you free coffee and soap to use for laundry (coin laundry across the street).
The place is older but that's what gives it such great appeal, and Candace artistically brightens the place up and makes it super funky.
If you are staying in Toronto and want to experience the eclectic feel of the city, then this is the place for you!
