We loved staying at Samantha's home! It's located in the Leslieville neighborhood, which is very diverse, walkable and charming. There are plenty of restaurants just around the corner – Samantha gave us some great recommendations and we had lots of fun exploring Leslieville, yet it's also just a short drive from downtown Toronto. Samantha's house is lovely and has a beautiful living/dining area -- we fixed some meals and all of our breakfasts at her house, which makes traveling so much more affordable!
