This house is a rare gem of a place and the thing which makes it special is the hospitality of Deborah and her husband. They were amazing hosts in every regard and made my parents 1st visit to Toronto a success. Deborah was quick to respond to any questions or needs that we had during our stay and truly made us feel comfortable and at home. Their cat Mazaal also provided us with much entertainment and was very warm toward us.
The place itself is impeccably clean, conveniently located a few steps away from the bus stop and a short walk from the Subway. As stated in the description every necessary amenity was provided. My parents used the bed during our stay while I used the pull-out sofa which is quite big and comfortable. There were extra blankets, sheets and fresh towels provided for us. The back-yard and grape arbor along with the antique furniture added to the beauty of the place giving it a quaint and cozy cottage-like feeling.
The neighborhood is safe, clean and has a lot of options for food and drink. There are also a lot of parks and walking/bicycling spaces close by and a Loblaws located a few blocks away.
All in all, the place was amazing and the hosts were very gracious and made sure that all our needs were met. It is great value for money and I would recommend this to anyone looking to rent a place that is close to downtown and has a homely touch to it as well!
