I stayed here for a month. Anne Marie is a wonderfully warm and welcoming host. She lives under the apartment and is great on communication (via email, text or just plain knocking on the door).

The apartment is full of light and quite large. There's a small terrace at the back. There are a few small niggles with the place - but as she's about to totally and completely renovate the whole building in a month, I'll just concentrate on the things that will still be the same when she reopens after the renovations.

The location is amazing. You can easily walk over downtown. You're handy for transport. You're close to subway and streetcar stops

The area is teaming with great places to eat, coffee places and there's a supermarket less than 10 minutes walk and a 24 hour drugstore within 5 minutes.

The house itself is on a quite treelined street which is mostly very quiet from traffic. You'll hear a lot of birdsong (but also on the weekends there's a tiny bit of rowdy student life - but all finished by about midnight).

It's a lovely area, a great light filled apartment and Anne Marie is a good host.
