After staying for two nights, some words that I would use to describe Raoul (as a host) are: very friendly, sociable yet respectful of privacy, considerate, unique, flexible, and extraordinary. Raoul treated my girlfriend and I very well and provided us with a very unique apartment to stay and play in. It is exactly as you will read in the description and see in the pictures. I highly recommend choosing to stay here if you decide to stay in Toronto. Almost all of the main attractions and shops are within walking distance from the apartment and if not, then the train stations are. Navigating your way around via train is quick and quite an experience as well. Raoul also has his own personal guidebooks and basket full of goodies to let us make the most out of our time in Toronto. His flexibility is one of a kind. He was late about five minutes after our agreed time to meet. However, he was sincerely apologetic and offered us a complimentary glass of wine to make up for it. He is a very very nice host. It was fun conversing and sharing thoughts with Raoul when we were all home. His bunny Velvet is cute and he even convinced me to have my own bunny one day.
