We cannot say enough good things about the guesthouse.
Location - It's located behind the main house in a little private garden. The #2 metro line is across Bloor St. and you can access it from Emerson Street. This metro will take you the #1 and you can be downtown in less than 20 minutes. Parking is by permit and can be purchased online and printed before arriving. This is an up and coming area so you will find tonnes of great restaurants within a couple blocks.
The space - Cozy and warm with a Murphy bed that makes the space very functional. The bed, pillows, and duvet make you feel like you're at a hotel. The bathroom has a heated floor and rain shower. You will find a stocked cupboard which makes you feel like you're at home and you can just reach for what you need. A nice selection of books along with cable and Netflix.
Host - Nedo is the perfect host. Easy to communicate with and very welcoming. He starts your stay with a couple bottles of sparkling water (Portuguese sparkling water, umm, so refreshing!). He makes a point of greeting all his guests which we feel is very important.
Pet friendly - We brought our two dogs. They are seniors so the space was ideal for them. The house is a short drive or long walk to High Park off-leash area.
Overall, this place is superb. Will stay here as often as we can.
