I didn't have a chance to meet him but he was accesible by texting. His place is exactly same as described in the picture. Close from subway or bus station. We could leave for Pearson airport by one bus right in front of the host's place. There were other guests staying but we couldn't realize this as other guests were very quiet and respectful. The only inconvenience was to load big suitcase through narrow stairs. Other than this, we enjoyed quietness, great accessibility to public transportation. I will certainly stay here again.
