Din is a friendly and welcoming host, and a delightful person who genuinely cares about her guests. Her house is nicely decorated, cozy and clean. Just be aware that the guest room is on the 3rd floor, so stair-climbing is involved (which I knew from the description, everything was as described) - as long as you don't mind that, there is a nice view from the room as the house sits atop a hill. There was a small portable heater to warm the room and that was sufficient in September. Delicious croissants for breakfast :-) The place is in a quiet neighbourhood, 2 blocks away from the busy Newmarket area (and 1 station train ride from the CBD), I found the location to be quite convenient to get to and from (with local public transport).

Overall, it was a great experience, I'm happy to have met and stayed with Din, and would stay again as well as recommend her without hesitation.

P.S. And the dog is so cute!
