Stayed: Apr/May 2021
Janet has literally been our guardian angel as we arrived as complete strangers to Canada. Both me and my wife unknowingly checked-into her flat with Covid as we got our +ve report post our arrival. Janet was very understanding and helped us during the recovery time and offered us help with groceries, new - sheets, towels, crockery & laundry etc etc. during our isolation period. But more importantly for us, it was the confidence of knowing that we could rely on her for help incase our covid symptoms worsen for which we cannot thank her enough. She truly is a remarkable host.
As for the flat, it is a nice comfortable flat in a quiet residential neighbourhood. All rooms have windows for bright light & fresh air and fans too incase of warm summer temperatures. We mostly cooked our food during our stay and the smaller bedroom gave us the privacy to work from home. Janet allowed us to use the garden for planting tomatoes too.
Most of the shops for essentials is walkable (less than a km) including the TTC and Go train as described in the profile. The lakeshore is walkable too (about 1.5 kms). Delivery of food and grocercies thru Uber, Sobey's, Amazon, Skipmydishes etc is easy. There is no washing machine (mind you .. Janet offers to help with hers) in the flat but that was not a constraint as there is a laundry shop that is walkable. We initially booked for a month but extended for another as it was convenient & comfortable for us.
Highly recommended.. We have a very pleasant memory of Janet and our stay at her property.
