Emil was the perfect gracious host enabling us to have a wonderful visit to Toronto. He provided helpful information on things to do, places to eat, and how to get from place to place, both in conversation and in the wealth of information he had available in the room.
The room, bath and garden were just as described and were charming, cheerful and felt immediately like home. Emil has furnished the room with all of the conveniences you need during your stay. I especially appreciate being able to park our car and not have to use it at all during our time there.
The neighborhood was a delight. We could walk everywhere safely and found nearby shopping, dining and interesting experiences. We did, with Emil's help and advice, use the streetcar and subway to reach the Royal Ontario Museum, but we walked everywhere else. We thought the listing was ideally located for anyone who wants to visit Toronto. We were also charmed to be there during a major holiday at the nearby Portuguese church and enjoyed their festival and the large procession which passed immediately in front of the house. It made us feel a part of the neighborhood which was the experience we wished to have.
