My girlfriend and I stayed at Sahar's place and honestly, it didn't feel like we "stayed" somewhere. It immediately felt like home once we walked in. The place was very clean and organized as well as the aesthetics of the rooms with the decor was amazing.
The neighborhood has a lot of variety places to check out from coffee shops as well as restaurants and dive bars. We thoroughly enjoyed just walking around the area discovering a side of Toronto a lot of tourists wouldn't get a chance to see (since they are always downtown).
Lastly, Sahar was an amazing host with very prompt responses which made us feel like we were taken care of. As well, she had great suggestions for us when we stayed of all her local favorites which made the stay that much more enjoyable.
