Just returned from a week's stay here, and enjoyed every minute of it, from the friendly welcome from Wayne, to exploring the neighbourhood. The beds were comfortable, and having our own private bathroom was a bonus. The road is extremely quiet at night -no traffic noise. There is a garden out back if you need to smoke, and mostly everything you need in the kitchen. There is a large supermarket 5 mins walk away, and the nearest Metro (125 St) just 10 mins walk, the No2/3 Express train takes you downtown fast.. We had no worries walking home late at night. We can recommend Bill's Place for Jazz on Fri/Sat nights, and Sylvia's for Soul Food. We would definitely go back to stay with Wayne on our next trip. Much more fun than a boring hotel!
