the experience was overall alright.. the host was very nice and this isn't so much about him but the place and location itself. It's stated that it's close to downtown by driving or transit but actually it's pretty far, on transit it takes an hour, you first have to take a bus to the train station, around 15mins ride, and then take the train which is 45 minutes. The location is in a spot where there is literally nothing around, not a single corner store, grocery store, etc it's what I'd call an industrial area with just some industrial jobs around. The room is quite small, smaller than what it looked like in the photo tbh but that's fine since we were just there to sleep and spent the rest exploring Toronto. The host was nice and made breakfast which was nice other than that we didn't see him so it felt like you had your own space which was also nice. The area did seem a bit sketchy at first I think there's a low income housing across from the apartment so the people around the area are iffy but didn't do anything. Overall the distance it takes to get downtown and the fact that there's nothing to do in the area made it somewhat if a less score for us.. if it was stated more in the description that it's better to have a car if you're staying in that area then I think it would prepare people more, but keep in mind there's also no parking.
