I had initially booked this place in May but due to the ongoing pandemic, I had to shift my dates to September. John was very accommodating about the change.
This is my first time ever in Canada, and I could not have asked for a better welcome. John enthusiastically showed me all the amenities (which are plenty) and explained the house rules. He had asked me if I needed any groceries beforehand and so they were ready for me when I arrived. He was always a delight to talk to and has some interesting stories to tell! An excellent human being.
The house itself is bigger than what you see in the photos and enough to accommodate two people easily. It has a separate entrance, so you can come and go without disturbing your neighbours.
It’s located very close to supermarkets and a gym. There’s also a vibrant cultural scene close by with cafes, restaurants, shops and what not. It’s just a streetcar ride away from Downtown. All in all a very convenient location.
I would thoroughly recommend John’s house to anyone who is looking for a home away from home in Toronto. You will not be disappointed.
I will definitely be staying here the next time I’m in town.
