Firstly, Bill and Cindy are very friendly hosts who go the extra mile to make you feel comfortable. Their property is in a characterful building and is spacious, homely and clean. The property is located 25 to 30 minutes walk from the centre of downtown Toronto. There are buses and street cars from the bottom of the street to get you there more quickly but we walked everywhere because Toronto is in the main a flat city. Also there are several parks within 15 minutes walk if you want to relax or picnic.
The supermarket on their street, a 5 minute walk, provides all your shopping needs. In short, if this place is available, just book it. No need to look elsewhere.
