Connie and Mark's apartment was lovely and comfortable in a great area of Toronto. We took up some of their suggestions for eating in the area and particularly liked The Wren for food and drinks. Mark kindly arranged a temporary parking permit for us and stocked the kitchen with fruit and muffins etc for our arrival. Because this is a basement apartment, there is inevitably a little bit of noise from daily life upstairs. The street is quiet and residential with an easy walk to the subway and lots of shops and places to eat.
