We loved staying at Christine's place. It felt like you were staying at a friend's apt while she was away for the weekend - an apt that is light, airy, inviting and brimming with character. She was accommodating and welcoming - let us drop bags early, left us great recommendations for food shopping, restaurants and drinks, took our calls quickly, left us coffee and maps. Decent location, quiet. A bit of a walk from the train but several good bus routes are 2-3 blocks away, incl ones that have you downtown in 10-15 min or to the train in 5. Slight drawback (note if you are a tall guy or person of size) the bathroom is a little small.
