We are thankful that both Derek and his mother, Joanne, are more than happy to accommodate our two cats for six weeks. Derek was attentive to our needs and replied promptly to any questions we had. Joanne was very warm and hospitable, and she went out of her way to provide a cat tree for us.
The apartment is clean and bottled water and milk were provided upon arrival. Joanne was thoughtful and provided us 3-4 bedsheets and blankets for our long stay. As for cooking/baking, pots, pans and trays are readily available for use. There is also a hallway to store your luggages, and drawers to organize your belongings.
In terms of location, the apartment is a 10-min walk from the nearest bus stop, which takes you all the way to Keele. Stock Yards Village is also nearby, in case you need to stock up on groceries and/or pet supplies.
Would definitely recommend to live here, especially if you are looking for a longer stay.
