Philip’s place is in the heart of King Street West and absolutely ideal for dining out and fun atmosphere. Most nights we walked to the nearby restaurants which were all highly rated and packed with locals. There were also lots of great cocktail bars, French cafes, etc. Philip was waiting for us when we arrived to check in and was also flexible with a slightly early check in which was really appreciated.
The place was clean, spacious (for Toronto!) and comfortable. I would rate his place a 4-Star. Can’t quite give 5-Star because of some the little details that were missed like the fact that the towel racks and hooks in the bathroom were all falling out of the wall and thus unusable. Certainly not a big deal but made us feel like it was more an investment property instead of someone’s home. Also, always appreciated other Airbnb’s that provided a bit of coffee or even black tea to ease the guests into their morning. But The most important detail to be aware of is there is constant loud construction all day next door which starts at 8am. If you plan on sleeping in you might have trouble. Otherwise the place was very quiet in the evenings.
All in all we really enjoyed staying at Philips place and would highly recommend.
