Great little place to cosy up in after a day out and about in the city or after a day’s excursion; it’s a basement conversion so not much natural light but it is well designed with thoughtful touches such as the book of photos of the district which made it seem immediately familiar when you spotted the real thing :) it really is bijou and no kitchen (we knew that before booking) but coffee machine , kettle and microwave were all we needed. Veronique able to help out with calls to family or for booking / confirming trips and her beautiful little dog able to help anyone missing their own pet...! With our own secure side entrance, we were able to come and go without disturbing the rest of the house. We were able to walk all around central Toronto from Cabbagetown and got a great sense of the changing districts by doing so, but recommend taking public transportation back as the walk seems longer on a slight incline...some have been apprehensive in their reviews of Cabbagetown , assume as there are clearly haves and havenots as you walk around, but we found it a lovely quirky and safe neighbourhood with a couple of local gems, including the park at the end of Winchester, breakfast at Johnny Gs on Parliament st and also good value pub meals at the Tilted Dog (also on Parliament).
