Penny and the apartment were just fantastic--I truly can't say enough good things about my stay. The space is beautifully done-- modern but still warm and inviting, with so many little details that allowed me to settle in and enjoy my three weeks in Toronto. everything I could think of and then some! fresh foods waiting for me, a thoughtfully stocked kitchen, flowers, lovely touches everywhere you look. And then there's Penny-- she's a gem. Helpful and quick to respond, had great suggestions on where to get stuff/go but also completely sensitive to allowing space. she was a delight to talk to. The neighborhood is perfect on foot-- quiet but a short walk to tons of restaurants and transit. p.s. OK Joe is one awesome cat if you like kitties and want visits... playful, friendly, and laid back. What a dude! just before my trip I saw a talk by an architect who said that good design should make you feel valued. that's what my entire experience did. thanks again Penny!
