Donna and Tom’s lovely little place is situated on a quiet, leafy residential street, in a leafy neighborhood that is a five-minute walk to bustling Roncesvalles Ave. From it you could either drive or take a streetcar to be in downtown Toronto within 15-20 minutes. We spent several hours sitting on the their charming front porch with relatives who were also visiting Toronto.
The apartment itself is cozy, extremely well thought out and as spotlessly clean as any we’ve stayed in. Wine, orange juice, water and maple cookies awaited us when we arrived. The bedding and linens were extremely comfortable. Donna and Tom were delightful! They went far beyond what would be expected of any Airbnb host to make us feel welcomed and cared for. They were there to greet us when we arrived and insisted on taking us to the airport train when we left. They made it clear that they were available for anything or any advice that we might need in between. They were the most caring hosts of any of our many Airbnb experiences and we’ve had some extremely good ones.
