Danny was a good host.
Toronto has so much to offer and has so many interesting neighborhoods -- it's hard to know where to begin. I thought Danny's apartment was an ideally situated "home base" from which to explore the city.
While it is a basement apartment, it felt cozy for two people, not cramped. It is quiet at night and early morning. Later in the day, sure you'd hear footsteps upstairs, but you should be out exploring the city anyway!
We appreciated so many small touches in the apt. Plus, there was juice, coffee, creamer and other provisions to get started.
Street parking seemed safe, right outside his row house, and Danny was kind to arrange for our parking permit. The only time we drove was to go to the zoo. Driving would be my last choice in Toronto!
The grocery store is less than a mile away, and the kitchen has everything you'd need.
Comfortable bed, nice bathroom.
It such a great value for $77 USD. It would be a good place to stay during the film festival!There is a nice theatre nearby that shows documentaries.
We used the Ossington metro stop - which is close by. We also did a ton of walking. I particularly enjoyed taking the street car down to the beaches neighborhood.
We were there at a good time - last weekend in May before tourist season.
