Barbara was a fantastic host making her beautiful home open to us at very short notice. The bedroom was large with a comfortable bed and the surrounding neighbourhood was very leafy and green. Barbara provided us with some detail information about Toronto and gave us some tips on where to eat. Her dog and two cats were no bother at all and her room mate was quiet and helpful too. If you can navigate the bus system you can be down town in 20 minutes from this location, perfect for when we were exploring the city, I couldn't recommend this place more.
